16 oz.
ricotta cheese - low-fat okay
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 pinch sea salt

-Divide the dough ball in four parts and place on a floured surface; spread, with finger tips, to
(4) 6" circles; set aside.
-Combine ricotta, mozzarella, pepper, and salt.
-Place 1/4 of the cheese mixture on one side of a dough circle and top
with desired meats/vegetables.
-Fold dough circle in half; seal with fingertips, making
sure no cheese mixture is in the seal; pinch the edge to
assure a tight seal.
-Pat calzone to even filling inside.
-Check seal again for leaks.
-Repeat with the other dough circles.
-Place calzones on a lightly greased baking sheet or
pizza stone.
-Cut a 1" slit in the top of each calzone for venting while
baking.
-Place in center of a 500 degree oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or
until golden brown.
Notes: Keep toppings to a minimum, as the
center will not cook if you use too many. Serve with your favorite pizza
sauce
, warmed, either on top or on the
side for dipping.
