This is a great recipe! I used Parmesan and Romano Pasta sauce and added minced garlic and seasoned salt. I also sprinkled each calzone with more shredded cheese a few minutes before they were done.

My husband LOVED these, the kids liked them and I thought they were ok. They were easy to whip up but I'm not sure they really tasted like a cheeseburger. My husband also loved that these made enough for leftovers which are kind of like homemade hot pockets. I will definately make these again but they might just be for hubby and his lunches. Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for a great idea! I needed to whip something up quick for a starving husband, and well he practically inhaled them. Thanks for this quick and easy meal!!
