Recipe Reviews

Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT

Amazing flavor, and expert execution by my DH, who prepared this for me on my birthday.

First you make pizza dough. Then you prepare a filling of spinach (the recipe specifies frozen), chopped olives, pepperoni, and mozzarella cheese. You roll out the pizza dough, cut it into 12 pieces, and make 12 hand-sized mini calzones. These were delicious.

We served them with some pizza sauce from our local Italian market.

My husband uses this cookbook for my birthdays because I grew up in Rhode Island. The header notes say that this item is known as a "Wimpy Skippy" in Rhode Island (from Caserta's Pizzeria in Providence). He was disappointed that I hadn't heard of a Wimpy Skippy, but none of us were disappointed about eating this delicious dish!
