Imagine a biscuit folded around sausage, eggs, and cheese. That’s exactly what these delicious breakfast calzones offer.

They are perfect for weekends and taste great fresh out of the oven.

You can also make a batch ahead of time then freeze for a quick breakfast anytime. Just reheat in the oven and you will have a tasty hot breakfast on a busy weekday morning.
