At a Calzone place near us...

A calzone is a pizza that has blown all its options and can't afford the luxury of changing its ways. The calzone has to capitalize on whatever it has left, and the calzone can't afford to admit — no matter how often the calzone is reminded of this fact — that every day of the calzone's life takes it farther and farther down a blind alley.

No calzones in this world are pizzas in disguise. Most calzones are simply nasty bits of dough larded up with New Zealand toppings, and they are going to stay that way.

Be wary of the calzone-eater, for there is not much mental distance between the feeling of having been screwed by ordering a calzone when you wanted pizza ... and the ethic of total retaliation.

Lasagna is clearly a sauce sandwich


Ked's World Famous Lasagna is not a Sandwich!
(Ok, maybe only extended family famous, and no one involved has any Italian ancestry so ymmv).

1 lb. Italian Sausage
1 Clove Minced Garlic
1 tbsp. Basil
1 lb. can Whole Tomatoes
12 to 18 oz. Tomato Paste

Brown the sausage (drain). Then mix in the garlic, basil, tomatoes, and paste. Make sure to break up the tomatoes as you do so. Simmer covered for 30 minutes.

6 Lasagna Noodles

Cook until almost, but not quite, done

2 Eggs
1.5 cups Ricotta Cheese
1.5 cups Cottage Cheese
1/2 cup Grated Parmesan (The actual cheese, not the powdered stuff)
2 tbsp. Parsley Flakes
1/2 tsp. Pepper

Mix Eggs, Ricotta, Cottage and Parmesan Cheeses, Parsley, and Pepper together

1/2 lb. Thin Sliced Mozzarella

In a two quart baking dish, layer as follows
Half of Noodles [Bottom] (Ripping them as needed to fit the pan)
Half of Ricotta Mixture
Half of Mozzarella Slices
Half of Sauce Mixture[Top]
Repeat

Bake for 30 minutes at 375. Allow to sit at least 10 minutes before cutting. Works great if you cook it the night before and refrigerate. Will still take about 30 minutes at 375 or so to reheat.

Definitely lots of New Zealand toppings!

"There is no way in heck I'm letting you say you have the the good stuff! Here, I will draw in more definitions from my oracles!"

(@Snarf Zagyg This is not in response to a post mentioning Pizza, Lasagna, Sandwiches, Fruit or Berries, although it can almost surely be read to be relevant to at least one of those in spite of my intention).
