4 Italian sausages
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups mushrooms, chopped
10 ounces grated fresh mozzarella
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cottage cheese
prepared pizza dough
2 tablespoons melted butter

1
Preheat the oven to 375u00b0 F.
2
Remove the skin from the Italian sausages and cook completely in a pan. Drain grease and set aside. Cook the onion with garlic, bell pepper, and mushrooms at least halfway and set aside with the cooked sausage. In a large bowl, combine the cheeses, herbs, and salt. Add the vegetables and sausage to the bowl and stir.
3
Divide the prepared pizza dough into 8 equally sized pieces. Using a rolling pin, roll each out into circles 1/4 of an inch thick. Spoon equal amounts of the filling in the center of each circle, fold one side of the dough over to the other, and pinch the dough together to seal. Brush the melted butter over the tops of the calzones. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until lightly brown.
