It’s no secret I’m the biggest fan of pizza, so here’s a fun little way of serving them to your little ones!
A mini calzone...the perfect pizza pie!
You could easily make a larger version of this for bigger appetites but I think you’ll find everyone in the family will prefer the mini calzones. I used pancetta in my filling but you could add anything you wish. Here’s some more of our favourites:
🍕Salami, chilli & mozzarella
🍕Mushroom, spinach & ricotta
🍕Meatballs & Swiss cheese
🍕Tuna, onion & cheddar
🧀 And if you’re a cheese lover like me, you can sprinkle extra cheddar or Parmesan on the crust before you pop them in the oven.
