Lime Soft Tacos and Sausage Calzones! Yum!

Good afternoon friends! Welcome to a new edition of Everyday Meals. As always, I'm your hostess, Mandie. Today, we are doing a couple of recipes. Both of them are versions of other recipes that I enjoy whole-heartedly. Every couple of weeks, my family loves to order calzones from a Pizza Hut. I know... I should be making them myself, but what can I say? I will say that my family makes a ton of tacos! That's our other recipe for the day. So, unless we get into the kitchen now, I will continue blabbing. Who wants that? Not me! I'll meet you there!

You will need:

• 1/2 pound bulk Italian sausage
• 1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
• 1 large red pepper, cut into strips, halved
• 1 tub Savory Garlic Cooking Creme
• 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
• 1 can refrigerated pizza crust

Let's do this!

1. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Brown the sausage with the mushrooms and peppers in a large non-stick skillet on medium-high heat. 
3. Drain the sausage, then return to the skillet. 
4. Stir in the cooking creme and mozzarella, then remove the skillet from the heat.
5. Unroll the pizza dough on a clean work surface. 
6. Pat out into a 15x11 inch rectangle, then cut lengthwise in hal. 
7. Cut each piece crosswise into thirds. 
8. Top the dough rectangles with the sausage mixture and fold in half. 
9. Seal the edges with a fork. 
10. Place on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
