- Add the first 7 ingredients to a 1 1/2 or 2 pound bread machine according to the manufacturer's directions. Select the dough cycle. When cycle is complete, remove dough from machine. Punch down. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, for filling; in a large skillet cook the ground beef, mushrooms, and green pepper until meat is brown. Remove from heat; drain off fat. Stir in the cheese and the pizza sauce.
- Divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll each half into a 10 inch square. Cut each square into four 5 inch squares. Divide the filling among the squares; moisten edges. Lift a corner of each square and stretch to opposite corner over filling. Seal edges by pressing with tines of a fork.
- Transfer calzones to greased baking sheets. Prick tops with a fork. Brush with the milk. Do not let rise. Bake in a 425 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from baking sheets; cool slightly on wire racks. If desired, serve calzones with additional warmed pizza sauce.
