Instructions

• Preheat oven top 425°F.
• Spray a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray (stoneware works great for these).
• Combine all ingredients except bread dough in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
• Divide dough into 5 balls of equal size.
• On a lightly floured surface or pastry mat, roll each ball into a circle about 8" in diameter.
• Place ⅕ of the filling on one side of each circle, leaving at least ½" around the edges to get a good seal.
• Fold dough over filling, sealing the dough together around the edges using a fork.
• Place on a baking sheet 2" apart and bake at 425°F for approximately 25 minutes or until golden brown.
• Serve with warm marinara sauce.
