Join the discussionI don’t know what I did wrong, but for 4 inch circles I needed 2 9 inch pie crusts not one? What is my problem?
Have you ever tried pizza dough…would be less money if I made it in my bread machine!?!!!
Never tried it but feel free to report back if you do.
Miniature pizza calzones!!!
Any thoughts on how to keep these warm until lunch when I send them to school with my kids? THANKS!
I think that the thermos suggestion would work for you too. I might wrap them in foil before placing them in a thermos though.
What do you mean by ‘flash freeze’ ?
