Easy Cheesy Calzone Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°.
• Line a 12 inch pizza pan with foil and spray with nonstick spray coating.
• Press dough onto foil in pan forming a 12-inch circle.
• In a large mixing bowl stir together cheeses then spoon 1/2 of mixture onto dough.
• Fold dough over filling to form a half-circle. Seal edges, then use the edge of a spoon to make decorative edge, if desired.
• Cut slits for escape of steam.
• Repeat for the other package of dough.
• Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or till filling is heated through and cheese is melted.
• Cover with foil after 10 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning.
• Cool on wire rack for 5 minutes before serving. Heat sauce and serve with calzone for dipping.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Make the filling: Mix the mozzarella, ricotta, basil, scallions, 1/4 cup parmesan and the breadcrumbs in a medium bowl until combined. Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll out each piece on a lightly floured surface into a 7-to-8-inch round.
• Spoon one-quarter of the filling onto one half of each dough round, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Lightly brush the edges of the dough with some of the beaten egg; fold the dough over the filling and crimp the edges with a fork to seal. Transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheet.
• Brush the calzones with the remaining beaten egg and cut 2 slits in the top of each to let steam escape. Sprinkle the calzones with the remaining 2 teaspoons parmesan, then bake until golden brown and cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce, the salami and giardiniera.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Open can of dough. (Do not unroll.) Cut dough crosswise in half.
• Unroll 1 half on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray; spread with pizza sauce to within 1/2 inch of edges. Sprinkle with mozzarella. Top 1/3 of dough with turkey, then cover second third with broccoli and corn. Leave remaining third topped with just the mozzarella. Unroll remaining dough half over filling; crimp edge with fork. Cut dough crosswise into thirds, then cut each third diagonally in half. (Do not separate dough.) Brush with water; sprinkle with Parmesan.
• Bake 15 to 19 min. or until golden brown. Cool slightly.
