Calzone or a pocket pizza is one of our family favorites. You practically can make the stuffing with anything you like, it could be mushroom, spinach, broccoli, onion, turkey, ground chicken the options are endless. If you are using meat stuffing just remember when you are sauteing, it would take a longer time to cook. I have used pre-made pizza dough for this but you can make your own dough with flour and yeast. For a healthier version you might consider baking it, but you will have to compromise on taste. I believe in healthy cuisine but I don’t like to compromise too much on the taste so I am using the pan method.
