Ratatouille Polenta Bake

Earlier this year some of the girls I work with and I decided to start having a girls night dinner every other month that rotated houses.  Each person could show off their amazing cooking skills while we kicked back, relaxed and had a fun night decompressing after work while drinking a glass, or two, of wine.  It’s nights like these that I just love.  And, the best part about it is new recipes! This one comes from Kate Saletta and is a staple in her family.  I loved the combination of polenta and cheesy veggies! 

Homemade Calzone

When I was growing up, calzones were a staple in our house.  It was something fun and customizable. Everyone could make their own (which decreased the number of arguments of what kind of pizza we were having).  And it was always fun seeing the dough rise. This weekend, I needed to use up some food in my fridge before it went bad and I thought this would be a great way to do it.  I had most of the ingredients in my fridge below, but feel free to make your own version…pepperoni and green peppers, veggie delight, chicken and spinach, anything your heart desires!  I decided to make one large calzone, but feel free to cut the dough in two.  Enjoy!
