Muffuletta Calzones Better Than The Sandwich!

You probably have other calzone recipes hiding in your bag of tricks, but this one will be the ace up your sleeve for any occasion. This Muffuletta calzone is a slight modification from the traditional sandwich so that it works as a calzone but the essential elements are still present.

Ingredients 

  • 1/2 pound pizza dough
  • 4 ounces sliced provolone cheese
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced ham
  • 2 ounces sliced Genoa salami
  • 2 roasted bell peppers, drained
  • 1/2 cup chopped pimiento-stuffed olives
  • Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°. On a lightly floured work surface, using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out the dough to a 10-inch round. On one half of the dough, layer the cheese, ham, salami, bell peppers and olives. Fold the dough over the filling and crimp the edge to seal.

  2. Brush the top with olive oil and bake for about 25 minutes, until golden. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
