Pesto "Chicken" Calzones

2 tsp. Olive Oil (plus extra for brushing)
1/2 Yellow Onion, diced
1/2 c. Asparagus, sliced
1/2 c. Cremini Mushrooms, sliced
8 oz. Chicken Style Seitan

1 Prepared Pizza Dough
1 recipe Herbed Pesto

Preheat oven to 450. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.  Add in onions and saute' 5-7 minutes.  Add in asparagus and mushrooms and saute another 3 minutes.  Add in seitan and cook another 2 minutes until heated through.

Split dough into quarters.  Roll out into small rounds and spread pesto along dough, leaving out an inch around the edges.  Fill with 1/2 cup of vegetable mixture.  Fold one side of the dough over to the other edge and use a fork or your fingers to seal the dough closed.  Transfer to a baking sheet that has been lightly oiled.  Brush the top of the dough with oil.  Puncture the dough a few times just before baking to allow steam to release.  Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes.
