Prepared pastry crust or any bread
Sliced pepperoni
1 Tbsp. pesto
2 Tbsp. ricotta cheese
Sliced red pepper strips
1 tsp. olive oil

Pesto:

2 cup basil leaves
2 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup Parmesan, grated

To make the pesto, process all the ingredients in a blender until a smooth paste is made.

To make the calzone, line the inside of both pre-oiled pie iron cavities. Spread pesto inside, followed by ricotta cheese and sliced peppers. Top with a few slices of pepperoni; close cooker to seal the pastry. Latch handles and cook over low heat until done.
