Ingredients

  • 1 pound pizza dough
  • 2 cups mixed greens (spinach, kale, arugula)

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  3. In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, basil, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

  4. Spoon the filling onto one half of the rolled-out dough, leaving a border around the edges.

  5. Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and press the edges together to seal.

  6. Brush the calzone with olive oil and make small slits on the top to allow steam to escape.

  9. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
