I got a nice care package of lovely food stuffs from my mother today, and am taking a break from cooking up a storm. For dinner tonight I'll be having a NY Style Calzone. This is a delicious meal, that is super easy to make.
You can use one of the tomato sauces from this site to top it. Or you can slack and use a jar. I won't judge you. Out loud.
You'll need:
dough - you can buy frozen dough, or most supermarkets will sell you a round of it now for about a dollar each. I can teach you how to make dough another day.
cheese - you'll need ricotta and a nice pizza blend of mozzarella and other tasty awesomeness.
spinach, mushrooms, onions, garlic, salt, olive oil (about a handful all together)
In a small pan, brown your spinach, mushrooms, onions and garlic in oil with a dash of salt.
Roll out your dough as wide as you can
Sprinkle a layer of your pizza cheese on the dough
spoon your veggie concoction carefully and evenly on top of that cheese.
Spoon your ricotta on top of that, evenly to make a thin layer.
Sprinkle another layer of pizza cheese.
Carefully fold your dough in half and seal together the edges.
Try to shape it like a football or something cohesive.
Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.
This is a great meal to share. Cut it in two and serve with a salad. Great with a nice glass of wine. Put on some Tony Bennett and dance around the kitchen. Be sure not to drop her when you dip her. And kiss, for God's sake. Kissing is the source of all real magic.
