Calzones Two Ways
- Cooking spray
- 4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 1/2 cups frozen broccoli florets, thawed and drained
- 3/4 cup part-skim ricotta cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup prepared tomato sauce (such as spaghetti or pizza sauce)
- 2 packages Pillsbury refrigerated pizza dough
- 1/4 cup sliced turkey pepperoni (such as Hormel)
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
- Preheat oven to 450u0b0. Coat 1 large baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; saute 2 minutes, until soft. Add oregano and stir to coat.
- Divide the onion mixture between two medium bowls. Set aside.
- Add broccoli to skillet; cook 3 minutes, until broccoli is crisp-tender. Remove from heat, and set aside.
- In one medium bowl, to onion mixture, add broccoli, 1/2 cup ricotta cheese, 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, and salt. Mix well to combine; set aside.
- In the other medium bowl, to onion mixture, add 1/4 cup ricotta cheese, 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, and tomato sauce. Mix well to combine, and set aside.
- Unroll dough onto baking sheet; half each roll so there are four squares. For 2 of them: Top one side of dough with broccoli mixture, to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Fold untopped side over, so dough meets the other side, forming a half-moon. Pinch the edges to seal together. For the remaining 2: Top one side of dough with pepperoni slices. Top the pepperoni with cheese mixture, to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Fold untopped side over, and pinch edges together to seal.
- Brush the tops of calzones with the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil, and sprinkle the tops with 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese.
- Bake 25 minutes, until puffed up and golden brown. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing in half (or wait until party to slice); serve warm or at room temperature.
