Calzones




3/4-1  c. whole milk ricotta cheese
1 c. mozzarella cheese, grated
1/2 C Italian Cheese 
1 egg white =1T water
Mix with a fork until smooth.
All your favorite pizza toppings
pizza sauce (homemade or store bought)
1.Start with the dough make your own dough or you can use store bought.   Roll each piece into an 8-9″ circle.   Fill half of the circle of dough with one fourth of the cheese filling and all the additional toppings besides the pizza sauce.  Leave about an inch from the edge so that you can fold the dough over the filling into a half moon shape. Crimp the edge with a fork.  Place on a parchment lined baking sheet ,

2.Using a fork, beat an egg with 1 T. water.  Brush the egg wash over the top of the calzone. And sprinkle with a little garlic salt and parsley. Bake it in a pre-heated 375° oven for 25 minutes.  It will come out golden and crispy!  Serve hot with a side of marinara sauce for dipping.



* I got this recipe from grandmabeesrecipes It was a great recipe and everyone loved them. I split the dough in half and made 2 jumbo calzones and then just cut them in slices to serve.
