last night we made our favorite recipe to make together, calzones! my family found this recipe years and years ago and always enjoy making it together.
no need to make your own dough, just get some from the publix deli or your favorite pizzeria (unless you are really good at it, i haven't mastered that yet...)
first start with making the ricotta mixture.
small container of ricotta (currently blanking on the size)
10 oz. frozen spinach, drained (or you could always use fresh!)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
salt and pepper
italian seasoning and oregano, however much you like
3 garlic cloves
preheat the oven to 425 before starting with the dough
each publix dough can make three good-sized calzones. since it was a holiday, we made two huge ones :)
then spoon about 1/4 cup of the ricotta mixture and lots of mozzarella cheese plus whatever toppings you want. i put green peppers and onions while justin is boring simple and wanted just pepperoni.
then fold over and pinch the seams so that it looks like this...
then bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. or until you can control yourself because it smells so amazing. the toughest part is judging who's looks best...
justin's?
or mine?
thought you would agree...mine was precious and delish.
oh and justin wanted me to take an artistic picture of his calzone over the roses...why not share it?!?
