Calzone

Ingredients

• 1 tube of Pizza dough (We use store brands or you can buy Pillsbury)
• 15 oz. Sargento® Light Ricotta Cheese
• 8 oz. Sargento® Shredded Reduced Fat Mozzarella Cheese
• 1 package of Pepperoni sliced
• 28 oz. Progresso Ready Crushed Tomatoes
• 3 Garlic cloves crushed or finely sliced
• Olive Oil
• 2 tbsp of Oregano
• 1 tsp of black pepper

Directions

• In a medium pot, fry garlic in olive oil until garlic is slightly brown.
• Let pot cool before adding Crushed Tomatoes.
• Cook sauce for 20 to 30 minutes on low heat stirring occasionally.
• When sauce is done, set aside.
• Use non-stick spray on a cookie tray before spreading out the dough.
• Spread dough thoroughly without creating holes.
• Spread about a 1/3 of the tomato sauce about 3 inches from the dough edge.
• Add ½ the container of Ricotta Cheese – Try not to spread this too much as you will need to fold the dough to make the Calzone.
• Add ½ a bag of Pepperoni or any other meat or vegetable you would like to add.
• Sprinkle Mozzarella Cheese evenly, don’t be shy with this.
• Sprinkle Oregano and Black pepper.
• Carefully fold each edge towards the middle to form the Calzone and squeeze the edges together to make a seal. Fold all other sides towards the middle and again make a seal.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Cook Calzone 15 to 17 minutes or until golden brown on the edges.

Cut into 2 pieces and serve.

You can freeze the leftover tomato sauce for the next time you would like to make a Calzone or Pizza.

Enjoy!
