Calzone Night

White Calzone
Pizza dough
1 clove garlic
2-3 Fresh basil leaves, washed and patted dry
6-8 Oz ricotta cheese
1 Cup mozzarella, grated
Sauce for dipping

I make pizza at least once a week, but why haven't I tried to make a calzone? So why not try now, since I have delicious leftover fresh tomato sauce to dip with?

I roll out the pizza dough as usual. I cover one half with minced garlic, about half a container of ricotta cheese and a cup of shredded mozzarella. I top with some torn basil leaves then fold the other side of the dough over. Pop in a 425 degree oven for about 20 minutes. Serve with fresh tomato sauce, or any bottled marinara or pizza sauce.
