Homemade Broccoli-Cheese Calzones
I made this recipe last night for dinner – because I LOVE Calzones and figured they would’nt be too hard to make. I was so right – although, they were a little dry. I think perhaps next time I will add a little olive oil to the dough to make it a little more moist. Otherwise it was tasty!
Pizza Dough
The recipe I used was the “Astonishingly Easy “yeasty” Bisquick Pizza Dough” – but there are plenty out there.
I made a dough and a half for three people’s worth of calzones.
Filling (per calzone)
- 1C (or a little less) of Ricotta Cheese
- 2T Parmesan cheese
- 1/2C Mozzarella (add half into the mix and reserve the rest to sprinkle on top of the mix before you fold the calzone).
- 1T Italian seasonings (oregano, basil, etc.)
- Broccoli (or sausage, meat, pepperoni, etc.)
Mix up the filling and spoon into a rolled out piece of dough. Put some mozzarella cheese on top then fold it up. Bake for 25-30 minutes (keep an eye on it).
Easy and tasty!
Right now I am waiting for some (better) dough to “rest” so I can make homemade tortilla’s! I will post the recipe later!
