Quick Calzone

These Spinach and Cheese Calzones from Healthy Kids Inc. have fiber, folate and potassium. Serve with a low-sodium marinara sauce for dipping.

Makes 6

 

1 package refrigerated pizza dough

1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and excess liquid squeezed out

1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese

1 cup shredded low-fat swiss cheese

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1 pinch fresh ground black pepper

1/2 cup flour for dusting

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil for drizzling

1/2 cup low sodium marinara sauce

 

1. Preheat the oven to 425F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, mix spinach with ricotta, Swiss, Parmesan, garlic powder and pepper.

3. Slice pizza dough into 6 equal pieces. Shape into balls, and stretch or roll out on a lightly floured surface into roughly 5-inch circles.

4. Arrange each circle on the lined baking sheets. Divide the spinach mixture into equal portions, and spread on one side of each circle, leaving a 1⁄2-inch border. Then fold the dough over the filling. Pinch and crimp the edges to seal. Cut a 1-inch vent in each, and lightly drizzle the tops with oil. Bake until golden brown, about 14 minutes.
