Salami Mozzarella Calzone Recipes

SALAMI MOZZARELLA CALZONE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet upside down in the oven and preheat to 400°F. Beat the eggs, parsley and lemon zest in a small bowl. Pour half of the egg mixture into a medium bowl and stir in the mozzarella.

Unroll the dough on the parchment paper and pat into a 9-by-12-inch rectangle. Spread the mozzarella mixture over one half of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border along the edge. Top with the salami, followed by the pickled vegetables and provolone. Fold the other half of the dough over to cover the filling.
