Super Tasty Calzone Pinwheels

Let’s face it! I made no secret before of how much I love pizza. In any shape, old fashioned pizza, stromboli, calzones, and now in the pinwheel form.

It’s sad I know, but you can’t blame a girl for liking her pizza. And these cute little bites are so easy to make and so adorable that you can’t resist eating them. I love making appetizers, and if you give me an appetizer that’s like a little mini pizza, well I’ll love you forever.

You know what’s great about these puppies? They are made with crescent rolls dough. I mean seriously, who doesn’t love Pillsbury crescent rolls to make all kinds of new and inventive recipes. So as I add the calzone pinwheels recipe to my list of Pillsbury dough recipes, I’m very happy. This recipe is truly a winner in my book.

So come and join me my friends and give this a try. I’m sure you’ll love it!
