-
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
-
Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal sized balls. Roll each dough ball into a flat disc, about 6-8" in diameter and 1/4" thick.
-
Brush each dough circle with 2 tablespoons of pesto, leaving a border around the edge for sealing.
-
Top 1/2 of each dough circle with 2 ounces of sliced mozzarella. Sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper on the mozzarella.
-
Top the mozzarella slices with 1/3 cup of meat sauce. And finally, top the meat sauce with 3 tablespoons of shredded Parmesan cheese. Repeat this for the rest of the calzones.
-
Fold each calzone in half, to cover the filling, and press the edges of the dough down. Crimp the edges to seal, and cut a small ventilation hole in the top of each calzone to allow steam to vent.
-
Place each calzone on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, and spray with cooking spray or olive oil so the calzones get brown and crispy. Bake at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes, or until they're crisp & golden brown.
-
Allow the calzones to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
