4 cups diced mixed vegetables (such as mushrooms, onions, broccoli, or zucchini)
canola oil
1 loaf (8 ounces) frozen white bread dough thawed
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1 cup marinara sauce
2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 (4-ounce) can sliced black olives
4 ounces Canadian bacon or pepperoni, diced
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil divided

Steps:

Turn toaster oven to convection bake at 400 degrees (or bake at 425 degrees). Saute vegetables for a few minutes in a little oil until just tender. Cut bread dough loaf into fourths and form each piece into a ball. Roll each ball into a flat 8- to 10-inch circle. Mix garlic into marinara sauce. On half of each circle, spread 1?4 cup sauce, leaving a 1?2 inch around the edge. On top of sauce, place 1 cup vegetables, 1?2 cup mozzarella cheese, 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, olives, and some meat. Fold each dough half over filling to form a semicircle; pinch closed all the way around. Brush each calzone with 1?2 tablespoon olive oil. Pour remaining oil on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until lightly browned on top. Makes 4 servings.
