Once you try these mini-sized calzones, you may never go back to the large ones.  Not only do these pretty bites take advantage of convenient refrigerator crescent rolls, but they can be made ahead and popped in the oven right before company arrives.  No one can eat just one and people love the cheesy, fresh taste!

Calzone Pinwheels Recipe

 

Calzone Pinwheels

½ cup ricotta cheese

1 tsp. Italian seasoning

¼ tsp. salt

½ cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

½ cup diced pepperoni

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, Italian seasoning and salt.  Stir in the mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, Parmesan cheese, mushrooms, green pepper and onion.  Separate crescent dough into four rectangles; seal perforations.
