I made these a few weeks ago and they were fast and yummy and a hit with all five of us!! Broccoli Cheese Calzones. I've made this recipe as one big Calzone but these were good as individual.
1 loaf Whole Wheat frozen bread dough, cut into 4 sections
1 Jar of your favorite Pizza sauce
1 bag Broccoli Florets
1 bag Shredded Mozzarella
Steam the bag of broccoli until it's almost done, it will cook a bit more in the oven
Roll individual sections of dough into a rectangle, in half of the dough place a few pieces of broccoli, 1/4 C. Sauce and 1/4 C. cheese. Pull dough over to meet edges of dough and roll the dough to pinch it together and then press the edges with a fork so there are no "escape holes." Shape into a half circle and continue with the remaining four pieces. Let rise on baking sheet for about 15 minutes. Bake at 400* for 15-20 mins. until golden brown (perhaps less time if your oven runs hotter)
Let sit a few minutes on baking sheet, warm remaining sauce for dipping and serve.
If you wish to freeze these, do all the steps minus the rising, just freeze on the baking sheet and then transfer frozen Calzones to a Ziploc bag. VERY important, when you pull these out for baking day, transfer them back to the baking sheet to thaw about an hr. and raise, if you just let the bag sit out to thaw you'll have a stuck together MESS! (I learned this the hard way! ha)
ENJOY!
This served 5 of us easily with 1/2 leftover!
Yummy!!!
