these have been a favorite in our house, and they are so easy. Thought I would share how we do ours. I welcome any feedback on how you prep your calzones.
ingredients:
pizza dough (i buy the trader joes pizza dough, in the refrigerated section)
marinara sauce
fresh mozzarella (and please, don't do the pre-grated, yes it makes a difference)
pizza toppings of choice (I through in whatever I have on hand. pineapple/pepperoni, sausage/tomato/peppers)
olive oil
parmesan cheese
pizza/italian seasonings
let dough rise about 20 minutes. roll out dough and cut into sections. Chop toppings and cube mozzarella cheese. Add a few spoonfuls of marinara, toppings and cheese. Fold over dough and pinch it closed. Brush or spritz top with olive oil. Tope with parmesan cheese, and pizza or italian seasonings. Sometimes I also add a little garlic salt. Bake at 425 degrees for 10-12 minutes, or until dough is starting to brown. I serve with extra marinara on side for dipping.
