Provided by Loves2Teach

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 loaves frozen bread dough (Italian, french, or pizza)
6 ounces sliced mozzarella cheese, to taste (we usually use more)
5 cups spaghetti sauce

Steps:

  • Thaw two loaves of bread dough.
  • Divide each loaf into five parts each.
  • One at a time, roll each dough piece on a floured board or stretch with your hands, making 10 7 inch squares.
  • Fold each dough square over half a cheese slice to form a turnover, and pinch edges to seal.
  • (You can also ladle 1/3 cup to 1/2 cup sauce into center of each square before making the turnover, but the sauce tends to seep out). Place each turnover in a small sandwich bag.
  • Put 5 turnovers in a 1 gallon freezer bag.
  • Divide sauce in half, and store in 2 1-quart freezer bags; enclose each bag of sauce in a bag of calzones.
  • Do the same with the remaining 5 turnovers.
  • To prepare for serving, thaw sauce; heat in a medium pan 10-15 minutes until bubbly.
  • At the same time, take frozen turnovers out of bags, and place them about 2 inches apart on a baking sheet sprayed with a nonstick spray.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Turnovers will be golden brown when done.
  • Ladle sauce on top of turnovers, and serve.

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, brush the calzones with melted butter or olive oil before baking.
  • To make sure the calzones are cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
  • If you don't have a pizza stone, you can bake the calzones on a greased baking sheet.
  • For a fun twist, try filling the calzones with different ingredients, such as pepperoni, sausage, ham, or vegetables.
  • Serve the calzones with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or blue cheese dressing.

Conclusion:

Calzones are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there's sure to be a calzone that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give calzones a try. You won't be disappointed!
