Apologies for my lack of posts, recently. After returning from a trip to London, UK I got admittedly lazy and only made simple meals for a while. But, we're back on track. Here is a recipe for Cheeseburger Calzones!
You will Need:
1/2 lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup boiling water
2 cups original bisquick mix
1 cup shredded cheese of your choice
1 tsp yellow mustard
1 tsp instant minced onion
3 tbs ketchup
12 dill pickles slices
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp sesame seeds
Here's what you do with it:
In a 10" skillet, cook beef over medium high heat, stirring occasionally, until brown. Drain. Stir in ketchup, mustard and onion.
Stir bisquick and boiling water with a fork until dough forms. Divide dough into fourths. Place dough on a surface dusted in bisquick; roll to coat. Press each piece into 6" round, 1/4" thick.
Spoon 1/4 beef mixture onto one side of each dough, within 1/2" of edges. Top beef with 1/4 cup cheese and 3 pickles. Fold dough in half, covering filling. Press edges together with a fork to seal. Place calzones on an ungreased cookie sheet. Brush with egg and sprinkle with sesame.
Bake at 375ยบ for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
To be Honest:
I used a whole pound of beef, and my husband still complained that he tasted more bread then meat. To which I voiced my thoughts on whether or not that's true with regular cheeseburgers as well.
I also couldn't find sesame seeds in our commissary. Our selection is sad, so I make do with what can be found. It was still good.
Aaaaand while in the commissary, my brain went into automatic. I don't generally like onion, so while standing in the seasoning isle, I automatically grabbed minced garlic, instead of onion. So I switched it up and diced some onion.
You ever have those brain fart days? I've been having a lot of them lately. I'm surprised I can even work a stove, these days. Haha. I'm rather relieved this recipe was edible. <3 I hope you enjoy it!
