DIY Heart Calzones: Cute & Easy Chow for Valentine's Day!
Valentine’s Day is when we pull out all the stops for our significant other – enormous flowers, jewelry, and fancy dinners in the city. But, not everyone is into grandiose celebrations. Some prefer a simple yet romantic dinner at home with music in the background. For these lowkey Valentine’s Day celebrations, this DIY Heart-Shaped Calzone recipe is perfect. It’s cute and easy to make so you can spend more time cuddling on the couch. Because it’s lowkey, we’re not making calzone dough from scratch. Instead, we’re using frozen pizza dough and cutting them into small hearts for some much needed V-Day cuteness. For the filling, we keep it simple with the classic chicken and mushroom calzone combo with an extra dose of umami all thanks to Knorr Liquid Seasoning Original. To take it up a notch, we serve this dish up with a creamy and oh so tangy garlic mayo dip because we still want to be a little extra for Valentine’s Day.
Tips
Make this ahead of time by freezing the assembled heart-shaped calzones. To bake, preheat your oven to 400F and add 10-15 minutes to your bake time.
