Help! What do I put in my calzones?

[Marzipan]

I want to make calzones with my 5 minute bread...here are some things I have on hand-- how should I combine them?

scallions
onions
spinach
frozen corn
carrots
celery
a red pepper
three leftover baked potatoes
raw red potatoes
black beans
salsa
sweet potato
refried beans
a plum tomato


swiss, cheddar, pepperjack and parmesan cheese

salsa, ranch, tomato sauce, pizza sauce, sour cream

I was considering roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, salsa and pepperjack (we make quesadillas like that) but I wasn't sure it'd be good in calzone form.

I would really like to dice up the potatoes and fry them and use them somehow so I can get rid of them...

Or alternately, does anyone have a recipe (besides potato soup) that I can use leftover baked potatoes in?

I'd saute up some onions (and/or scallions) with the spinach and garlic if you have it. And of course some cheese. :yum

As for the baked potatoes....I'd eat it as is for leftovers or throw some chili and cheese on top. Or what about making loaded potato skins.

I was gonna say what Wendy said about the calzones. :yum

Twice baked potatoes would be yummy.

well, here's the problem: I don't have a ton of spinach so i need something else in there with it...

[TuneMyHeart]

you could add the red pepper and tomato too.

[CakeLady]

got any mushrooms?

Oooh. I wish I had mushrooms. I ended up making hummus and pita for dh and I, and mini cheese pizzas for the kids. :bag I'm feeling lazy.
