Steps:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Stir and let sit until the yeast starts to foam and bubble, about 10 minutes.
- Using the dough hook, turn the mixer on low and slowly olive oil, honey, salt and the flour in 1 cup increments until all is added. Once dough starts to form, increase speed to medium. Mix for 5 minutes, until dough is well combined.
- Dust the counter with flour. Remove the dough and knead on counter a few times to form a ball. Place dough in a well-greased bowl, cover loosely with a towel, and let rise for 30 minutes in a warm place. At this point, dough is ready to use for calzones or to freeze to use later.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, Parmesan, mozzarella, eggs, parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper. If using pre-cooked Italian sausage or pepperoni, stir in now. Set aside.
- Grab a pinch of dough and roll into about a 2 inch ball (or desired size of calzone.) Roll out very thin, about 1/4 of an inch thick.
- Spoon 3-4 tablespoons (approximately) filling onto half of the dough circle, leaving a little room around the edges. (Do not overfill the calzone or it will split open while baking.) Fold half of the dough over itself, then press edges to seal. Use the back of a fork to make sure it's sealed well. Then, poke a few holes with the fork in the top of each calzone.
- Brush surface of calzone with beaten egg, then bake on a parchment or foiled-lined baking sheet for 10-13 minutes, or until nice and golden brown. Serve with warm marinara sauce.

WHOLE-WHEAT BEEF, MUSHROOM AND SPINACH CALZONE
By using just a small amount of meat and cheese we were able to lower the fat in these high-fiber calzones. Pair with a nice green salad to round out your meal.

Steps:
- Set a pizza stone or baking sheet on an oven rack in the bottom-third position and preheat to 425 degrees F.
- Heat 1 teaspoon of the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of crushed red pepper. Break the beef into large chunks with a wooden spoon. When the beef is browned all over, about 2 minutes, add the mushrooms, 2/3 of the garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook for 3 minutes, then fold in the spinach to wilt, about 1 minute. This mixture should be relatively dry. Remove to a large bowl to cool completely.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and garlic and another pinch of crushed red pepper to the skillet. Stir for a minute to lightly brown the garlic, then add the tomatoes and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Simmer until thick, about 6 minutes. Reheat this sauce when ready to serve with the calzones.
- Divide the pizza dough into 4 balls. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. On a well-floured surface, roll out each rested ball into a 6- or 7-inch circle 1/8 inch thick. On the bottom half of each circle, mound a quarter of the cooled beef mixture, top with 3 tablespoons of the mozzarella, fold over the top half of the dough to form a semicircle and pinch the edges to seal. Carefully transfer the calzones with a spatula to the prepared baking sheet. Lightly brush with the beaten egg. Cut 2 small slits on top of each to vent steam.
- Bake the calzones in the oven on the hot pizza stone or baking sheet until golden brown, about 22 minutes. Serve with the heated tomato sauce on the side.
- Stir together the warm water, honey and yeast in a measuring cup or small bowl. Let sit until a small layer of foam develops at the top, 3 to 5 minutes. (If this doesn't happen, discard and try again with new yeast.)
- Whisk the flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl. Add the foamy yeast mixture and olive oil and mix together with a stiff rubber spatula. Form the dough into a uniform ball in the center of the bowl. Be sure to scrape and use any dough stuck to the sides. The dough will be very sticky at this stage. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and keep in a warm place until the dough has doubled in size, about 2 hours.
- Lightly dust a baking sheet with flour. Sprinkle a generous amount of flour on a clean, dry work surface. Scrape the dough onto the floured surface and knead for a couple of minutes, working in just enough flour to make the dough less sticky but still moist to the touch. Form the dough into 1, 2 or 4 balls, for large, medium and small pizzas. Place the dough ball(s) on the prepared baking sheet. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or a dish towel and let rest for 30 minutes. The dough can then be shaped and cooked as desired or wrapped well and frozen for up to 1 month. Thaw frozen dough at room temperature, shape and cook as desired.

PERFECT EVERY TIME PIZZA OR CALZONE DOUGH
Ready in a snap and my kids love it! This can be used for pizza dough too. My dear chef friend Darrin Gleason shared this recipe with me over ten years ago while attending college. It has been a go-to recipe for my family for all these years and I thought I should share it with my cooking community.

WHOLE WHEAT CALZONES WITH 2 SAUCES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper
- Combine all dough ingredients in a large mixing bowl and knead with your hands until the dough can be formed into a ball that is smooth and elastic. Set aside for 10 minutes to let the dough rest.
- While the dough rests, you can make your sauces. Add the cashews in a bowl of water and set aside for 5-10 minutes to soften. In the meantime, combine all tomato-basil sauce ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. After soaking the cashews, drain the water and add all creamy sauce ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Set both sauces aside.
- After letting the dough rest for 10 minutes, grab a handful of dough and roll it into a circle on a well floured surface. It should be about ¼ an inch thick (but not too thin).
- Place your sauce and fillings on one side of the rolled out circle, then fold it in half. Press the edges together with your fingers (wetting your fingers may help to press the dough together).
- Crimp the ends with a fork, then poke a few holes on top so steam can escape during baking.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes. Rotate the trays halfway through the baking time.
- Serve with extra tomato-basil or cashew sauce on the side!

WHOLE WHEAT CALZONES
This recipe by master baker Beatrice Ojakangas is a great tasting way to add fiber to my family's diet. The dough is very easy to work with and my children used to love to help me roll this out when they were little. We like to stir these up on a Friday or Saturday night rather than order pizza. I'm including the fillings from the original recipe but you can substitue your family's favorites as we do. Enjoy!!
