Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz Whole wheat pizza dough
- 1 cup Low-fat shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Low-sodium marinara sauce
- 1 cup Chopped fresh spinach
- 0.5 cup Sliced mushrooms
- 0.5 cup Diced red bell pepper
- 1 tsp Dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- as needed Olive oil cooking spray
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with olive oil cooking spray.
Divide the whole wheat pizza dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a 6-inch circle on a lightly floured surface.
In a medium bowl, mix together the spinach, mushrooms, red bell pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Spread 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce on one half of each dough circle, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Top the sauce with an equal amount of the veggie mixture and sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the veggies.
Fold the empty half of the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Pinch and fold the edges together to seal, or crimp them with a fork.
Place the calzones on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil cooking spray to help them brown.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the calzones are golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your veggie-packed calzones!
