Introduction

BIG family hit! BIG family hit!

Minutes to Prepare: 10

Minutes to Cook: 15

Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

1 tube refrigerated pizza dough

2 cups mozzarella cheese

approx. 32 turkey pepperoni slices

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350.

Roll the pizza dough out and make it a flat rectangle. Cut it in half the long direction. Then cut it in half the short direction. Then cut each of those halves in half again the short direction. You should have 8 rectangles left.

On each rectangle, put approximately 4 of the turkey pepperonis & 1/4 cup of cheese. (You can also add any other pizza toppings you like. I usually add diced peppers) Pull one side over the top and seal by using a fork all the way around each calzone.

Place them on a cookie sheet & bake for 15 - 20 minutes (depending on your oven.)

This makes 8 calzones. I usually serve with pizza sauce to dip in.

I also used a 1/2 mozz and 1/2 ricotta mix, more like the real thing. Everyone loved it, even with the turkey pepperoni. We will have this again, for sure - 6/3/09

I make these filled with a thawed package of creamed spinach, mozzarella and parmesan cheese, and sometimes include cubed cooked chicken breast. They are wonderful. We have salad with them and it's a great meal. - 11/3/12

These were yummy. I made some with mushrooms, spinach, sauce and cheese and some with turkey pepperoni and cheese. My family really enjoyed them. After about 5 min or so of cooking I brushed egg whites on top of them to make them shiny and help them brown nicely. I will be making them again! - 6/20/12

These were a HIT with my family - including kids.

This is a good recipe you can make your own! I added red and yellow peppers and chopped garlic to mine, which was OK, but I forgot the pizza sauce since it didn't show in the main "ingredients" area. With that, these would be awesome!!! - 6/17/09

I tried it using turkey ham - had the grocer slice it thin like deli slices. Added bell peppers & mushrooms and a teasponful of Ragu sauce inside. Also used low fat cheese or try neufschatel (lowfat cream cheese) instead. Will make again - THANX for this easy & quick recipe. I love calzones! - 6/15/09

These were unbelievably amazing! The only reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 is that I have no IDEA who could eat just one (unless you bulked up on dry salad & water beforehand) & they turn into a not-so-healthy dinner when you eat multiple. - 6/13/09

hmmm...isn't it dry. Nobody has said anything about it being dry- our family really likes sauces- hence me being on this site.

Reply from RAJAHKITTY (6/2/09)
My son doesn't like sauces, so that's why I usually put some pizza sauce out for those of us who do like it to dip in. A 1/4 cup of sauce (more than enough) adds 30 calories.
