    These calzones are a game changer! The combination of sausage and spinach is simply delicious. Will make again for sure!

    I don’t know, it sounds easy, but mine turned out super mushy. Maybe I used too much cheese? Not sure if I’ll try again.

      I think maybe you just put in too much cheese! Try using less next time. They’re really good when they’re not overstuffed.

      Mushy calzones? Ugh, that’s the worst! Maybe try baking longer or at a higher temp? Just a thought!

    Good recipe but where’s the garlic? Sausage needs more flavor! Can’t believe anyone would say it’s perfect. 🤷‍♂️

      Garlic would definitely amp up the flavor! I always add some minced garlic when cooking sausage. It’s a game-changer! 🌟
