Make-your-own calzones is the epitome of an easy dinner night! Especially if you buy the dough at the grocery market bakery! We buy our pizza dough at Publix in the bread/bakery section. But, my husband also likes to make the dough when he has a chance. It really is simple to make pizza dough- and it tastes great! You simply add your choice of marinara sauce, cheese, and any toppings...fold it, brush with olive oil, and bake it! So easy and so delish!
Some of the toppings our family likes~ basil, black olives, pepperoni, proscuitto, feta cheese, mozzarella cheese. Anything that you enjoy on a pizza can be folded inside of the calzone. Have fun and enjoy!
My husband swears by this Bobby Flay recipe if you want to make your own dough. https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/bobby-flay/pizza-dough-recipe-1921714

1-2 containers Pizza Dough (pre-made from grocery store bakery)

Divide premade dough into equal portions to equal number of calzones you want to make.
