This looks DELISH!
What can be substituted for the cashews?
You should be able to use hemp seeds or sunflower seeds instead of cashews. You may be able to substitute white beans, too, but it would take some trial and error on the conversion. Nuts to seeds is 1:1.
Mine did not turn out that great. I’m not sure why you use 2 and 1/2 cups of potatoes then it is only 1/2 cup in each of the four calzones.
The flavor is great but everything was too wet and I had excess.
So instead of making the last two into calzones, I made pot pies out of them.
I think Nicole meant the veggie filling. I agree! Way too much! Pot pies is a great idea!! Had trouble browning my calzones. Needed longer than 8 min in my Breville.
According to the directions, 1 3/4 cups potato flakes go in the dough.
Super yummy !!!
gotta admit these were flakey goodness
Can you use something besides nuts for dough?
