Steps:

• Prepare 1 recipe pizza dough (I use'd the dough cycle on the bread machine) and let it rise.
• While Dough Rises, Prepare Filling:.
• In a medium frying pan heat tomato oil over moderate heat, add onion and cook, stirring often, until soft but not browned.
• Mix in garlic, then remove from heat.
• In a medium bowl mix ricotta cheese with dried tomatoes and parsley.
• Stir in cooked onion mixture.
• Divide dough into two equal portions.
• Roll each half out on a floured surface to a 12-inch circle.
• Spread half of the ricotta filling over half of each circle of dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch margin.
• Sprinkle half of each circle with half of the meat strips and 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese.
• Fold circles in halves over filling, moistening and pinching edges together (or pressing with tines of a fork) to seal.
• Preheat oven to 450~ F.
• Sprinkle a large, greased baking sheet lightly with cornmeal.
• Place calzones well apart on prepared baking sheet.
• Let rise until puffy (12 to 15 minutes).
