Irene McEwen - Phoenix, Arizona
Bake-Off® Contest 32, 1986
Serve these hand-held pizzas with a mixed green salad for a satisfying meal.


   2 eggs
   1 (15-ounce) container (1 3/4 cups) ricotta cheese
   1/2 cup (2 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese
   1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
   1/2 teaspoon salt, if desired
   1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
   1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
   1/4 teaspoon pepper
   1 garlic clove, minced or 1/8 teaspoon instant minced garlic
   2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
   
   SAUCE
   2 (8-ounce) cans tomato sauce with mushrooms*
   2 to 4 tablespoons red wine, if desired
   1/4 teaspoon dried basil leaves
   1/4 teaspoon dried oregano leaves


Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, beat eggs slightly. Add cheeses, salt, 1/2 teaspoon basil, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, pepper and garlic; blend well. Separate dough into 8 rectangles; firmly press perforations to seal. Press or roll out each to 7 x 5-inch rectangle. Spoon scant 1/3 cup cheese mixture onto half of each rectangle to within 1 inch of edges. Fold dough in half over filling; firmly pinch edges to seal. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. With sharp knife, cut 3 slits in top of each filled rectangle. Bake at 375°F. for 14 to 17 minutes or until deep golden brown.

In small saucepan, combine all sauce ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 15 minutes to blend flavors. Spoon over each serving.

TIPS:
*One (8-oz.) can tomato sauce and 1 (2.5-oz.) jar sliced mushrooms, drained, can be substituted for the tomato sauce with mushrooms.
To reheat, wrap loosely in foil; heat at 375°F. for 15 to 20 minutes or until warm.
