Post-party calzone

Being vegan presents me with a few challenges every now and then and it's safe to say that planning ahead is rather important. According to the myth thou, there's "nothing" I can eat! On the contrary, the options are unlimited. It gives me a chance to explore the world of flavor and "out-of-the-ordinary" foods. It's quite an adventure from time to time.

What ppl usually comment on is the tragedy of me not being able to eat tacos or pizza. Apparently they've never heard of beans. Today I felt like something yummy after a night out celebrating being done with the first of my last exams. Since pizza's not a hit without cheese I realized that calzone did not require cheese and in some ways is actually better than pizza.

Ready, set, cook!

Make pizza dough (probably the easiest thing in the world):
4,5 dl flour
1,5 dl water
1,5 teaspoons oil
0,5 teaspoons salt
25g yeast
pepper <-- my best recommendation! It makes the dough really tasty

Topping: anything you'd like! Here's what I put in:
Crushed tomatoes
Corn
Onion
Beans
Mushroom
Leek


And yes, I'm a natural with the yeast. For some reason beyond me I'm exceptionally good at making things thrice the size it should be.
