- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in quarters
- 1⁄4 cup pepperoni, sliced and diced
- 1⁄4 cup green pepper, chopped

directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F Grease 1 or 2 baking sheets, then sprinkle with cornmeal.
- In a bowl, toss together the mozzarella, tomatoes, pepperoni, green pepper, parmesan, pizza sauce, oregano and pepper. Set aside.
- Divide the pizza dough into 6 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Roll each into 6 inch circle, on floured surface.
- Spoon some of the filling into the middle of the circle, wet the edges slightly with water and fold over into a half-moon shape. Press the edges very firmly to seal all the way around, with a fork. Don't add too much filling or they will leak. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Place 3 pockets on each baking sheet, they need room to expand. Then with a sharp knife, cut 2 or 3 small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
- Place in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let cool slightly before serving. Can be wrapped in foil for an on the go meal.
