1

Heat oven to 450°F. In 10-inch skillet, cook sausage and onion over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sausage is no longer pink; drain. Stir in mushrooms and 1/2 cup of the pizza sauce; cook until thoroughly heated.
2

In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix, boiling water and oil until dough forms (add additional tablespoon of water if needed). Place dough on surface sprinkled with Bisquick mix; roll in Bisquick mix to coat. Shape dough into a ball; knead about 10 times or until smooth. Roll dough into 12-inch round.
3

On ungreased cookie sheet, place dough round. Top half of dough with sausage mixture to within 1 inch of edge. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over sausage mixture. Fold dough over filling; press edge with fork to seal. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
4

Bake 14 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cutting board. Cool 5 minutes before cutting into 6 wedges. Heat remaining pizza sauce; spoon over each serving.

Expert Tips

You can use a package of sliced pepperoni in place of the sausage and onion. Just stir pepperoni together with the 1/2 cup pizza sauce and mushrooms and fill the calzone.
To personalize your calzone, add your family’s favorite pizza toppings. Try bell pepper, olives or onions.
