Hello readers! The past few months I've been working super-hard but done little writing. Such is life, gotta pay the bills. 😜 In retrospect, I wasted valuable time and energy trying to make something work out. Have you ever felt like that? If so, I'm sending you a hug. Anyway, it's time to move onward & upward from a very frustrating and negative space and "cleanse" myself with some writing.
I'm going to start the week by sharing one of my favorite "go to's" when I'm feeling pressed for time but still want something satisfying for dinner. If you want to make your own pizza dough and sauce, go for it!
1/2 ball of pre-made pizza dough
Pizza sauce (jarred)
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
1/2 cup ricotta
1/2 cup shredded cheddar & mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped mushrooms
1/8 cup sliced olives
Garlic pepper
On a surface coated with olive oil, roll out pizza dough to about 1/4 inch thick.
Mix together chopped spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, ricotta, mushrooms, olives, and cheeses.Spread pizza sauce evenly over dough. Spread spinach mixture evenly on half of the pizza. Fold dough over the mixture and pinch edges to seal. (It will look "stuffed" but the spinach will cook down.)
Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic pepper. Cut three 1/2 inch slashes on top to vent.
Place calzone on an oiled baking sheet or pizza slab and bake at 450-degrees for 15 minutes or until the top is browned. Remove and let sit for 5 minutes before slicing.
Enjoy!
