I am a Marine in San Antonio, Tx and my baby girl woke me up at 6am and thats when I was watching you cook with your wife. I thought this dish was great. Store was out of Eggplant and I am on an all white meat diet so I used Zucchinni, mushrooms, spinach, onions, and chicken. My wife loved it and thought the spice with the red pepper was perfect. The next time your in San Antonio give me call and I will tour some diners, drive-ins, and dives with ya.

I gave it 5 stars because the flavor was AWESOME.. but I was unable to follow the recipe, so here was what I did: Store was out of eggplant, prosciutto, and fresh dough. So,in place of eggplant, I used a mix of red, yellow, and green bell peppers and onions. For the prosciutto, I used .2 lbs pancetta + 2 stips of bacon, crumbled. For the dough, I used Pillsbury Pizza dough. Not what I wanted, but what was available. I was worried that there were holes in the calzones before I put them on the stone ( I don't have a "peel" so I used a cutting board and it started to fall apart a bit.... but after it cooked a little, it was perfect. I served it with the roasted tomatoes from The Neeley's. mmmmm!

Tried this recipe and it was very spicy? which could be just my heavy hand. The dough was VERY easy!!!. Be very careful about the salt the you season with, the prosiutto can be salty. like mine. Also, I would suggest to peel the eggplant, I could not get past that texture. Other than those suggestions I thought it was very tasty and could be used for a pasta sauce as well.

I am going to try the other recipes for this episode also.
