Ground turkey/veggie & cheese calzones image

I wanted to make calzones one night, but I wanted them to be healthy, so I made up this recipe from another basic calzone recipe. I used whole wheat pizza dough, but you can use regular pizza dough, usually found near the pizza section in a store.

The dough was a bit too thick for my liking. I would have preferred a thinner crust.
