    Turkey Calzones

    Jump to Recipe

    Calzones with ground turkey are easy to make and a nice change from pizza. The frozen bread dough makes a delicious crust for the calzone and saves time over making it from scratch.

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven top 425°F.
    • Spray a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray (stoneware works great for these).
    • Combine all ingredients except bread dough in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
    • Divide dough into 5 balls of equal size.
    • On a lightly floured surface or pastry mat, roll each ball into a circle about 8" in diameter.
    • Place ⅕ of the filling on one side of each circle, leaving at least ½" around the edges to get a good seal.
    • Fold dough over filling, sealing the dough together around the edges using a fork.
    • Place on a baking sheet 2" apart and bake at 425°F for approximately 25 minutes or until golden brown.
    • Serve with warm marinara sauce.
