Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- To assemble the pizza dough: In a large bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let it about 10 minutes or until it turns foamy.
- Add olive, flour, and salt and mix well. Remove the dough and knead it more flour to prevent sticking. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
- Divide the pizza dough into 3 or 4 balls, depending on the size of the calzones you’d like.
- On a well-floured surface (I prefer using two baking sheets rather than my countertop), take each ball and roll it out into a circle.
- Place 1/2 cup marinara sauce on the middle of each piece of dough, leaving a 1-inch space from the edge.
- Place the bell pepper, onion, and olives over the sauce. Fold each piece of dough in half, fold the edges over, and pinch the edges together.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the calzones are golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool.

Notes
- The warm water should be warm to the touch but not too hot. If it’s too hot, it can kill the yeast.
