Diabetic Pizza Pockets

These are unbelievably good for a diabetic recipe. My aunt has tried so many different recipes (allot of which are terrible) and this one is actually pretty tasty! Oh, the dietary exchange on this recipe is: 1 medium fat protein, 2 carbohydrate (bread/starch). Enjoy

Steps

Open dough can and place on a work surface.
Roll out and cut two 6-inch circles.
Rework scraps , roll out , and cut out another two 6-inch circles for a total of 4 circles.
Discard remaining scraps.
Place the dough circles on the work surface.
Spread each circle with 1 tablespoon pizza sauce to within 1 / 4 inch of the edge.
Place 1 / 4 cup of the mozzarella cheese near the center of each circle.
Top each with 1 tablespoon ricotta cheese and sprinkle with 1 / 4 teaspoon oregano.
Dampen the edges of each circle with a little water.
Fold circles in half , enclosing the cheese filling.
Crimp the edges by pressing down with the tines of a fork along the edge.
Cut two small slits in the top for steam vents.
