Mmmmmmm….last night’s dinner was delicious (which was awesome considering Monday’s icky cabbage dish)! The battery was dead on our good camera, so I took this pic with our not-so-good one:

I spent Monday night prepping all of the components so that I could put them all together as easily as possible last night. These are sort of calzone-y, but since I didn’t gauge my dough – filling ratio very well, they didn’t look very calzone-y. Instead, I’m just calling them hot pockets.

I used the same dough recipe from the Pups in Blankets recipe in Vegan Lunch Box. I doubled it, though, so there would be more dough available to make the hot pockets. I then made a simple and pretty standard basil pesto, but I added in some arugula just for fun. I chopped up some tofurky sausages and two plum tomatoes and sauteed them until the sausages browned.

To assemble the pockets, I cut out a square of dough, placed some pesto down first, then some leftover cheezy sauce went on next. I then piled on the sausages and tomatoes and then put some more arugula leaves on top. I baked them at 375 for 15 minutes. Perfect!

I served these with some marinara on the side for dipping. Mmm mmm good! My husband REALLY liked these, too. I brought the only leftovers for lunch today and I’m counting the minutes until it’s time to eat. I usually eat between 11AM and 11:30AM (I’m just so hungry by then!), but I have a meeting during that time today, so I won’t get to eat until after 12:30PM. I hope I can make it! Seriously, who calls a meeting during lunch? Or do I just eat earlier than everyone else?
