Meatball Calzone

Calzone Recipe

I usually make these after we have spaghetti & meatballs, to use up any leftover meatballs and sauce we might have.

You can also substitute any pizza toppings you like for the meatballs.


Ingredients:

1 recipe pizza dough
10 cooked meatballs
1 cup prepared spaghetti sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 oz.)
1 teaspoon oil (olive or canola)

Directions:

1.  Preheat oven to 375°.  Grease a large baking sheet.  Divide pizza dough in ½.  Roll each ½ into a 12-inch circle.  Place each rolled circle onto prepared baking sheet.

2.  Place 5 meatballs on half of each piece of dough.  Top each with ½ cup sauce and 1 cup cheese.

3.  Fold dough in half, enclosing filling.  Seal edges by pinching or with a fork.  Brush each calzone with ½ teaspoon oil.  Cut a slit in the top of each to vent.

4.  Bake for 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.  Cut each into 3 wedges.

Serves 2-3
