One Recipe Two Meals Cheesy Calzones Food

EASY CALZONE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 °F. Line the baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with oil.
• Divide the dough into 8 equally sized pieces. Roll each piece into a 1/4" thick circle.
• Place the filling on half of each circle (pizza sauce, ricotta, pepperoni, salami and shredded mozzarella). Make sure to leave the edges clean to allow for sealing the calzone. Fold the side over the filling and crimp the edges.
• Place calzones on a baking sheet, leaving space apart. Cut a small vent on the top of each calzone. Brush the tops with oil and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

CHEESY CALZONE RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Open can of dough. (Do not unroll.) Cut dough crosswise in half.
• Unroll 1 half on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray; spread with pizza sauce to within 1/2 inch of edges. Sprinkle with mozzarella. Top 1/3 of dough with turkey, then cover second third with broccoli and corn. Leave remaining third topped with just the mozzarella. Unroll remaining dough half over filling; crimp edge with fork. Cut dough crosswise into thirds, then cut each third diagonally in half. (Do not separate dough.) Brush with water; sprinkle with Parmesan.
• Bake 15 to 19 min. or until golden brown. Cool slightly.

ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS: CREAMY, CHEESY POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat. Add the celery and onions and saute until the veggies begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and toss with a good pinch of salt. Add the chicken stock and simmer until the potatoes soften, about 20 minutes. Then add the milk and butter, and stir until the butter melts.
• At this point you have a few options. If you have an immersion blender, simply stick the wand in the pot and give it a few whizzes, blending some of the soup until it's nice and creamy. You'll still want a good amount of potato chunks in the soup, so don't go overboard, like I tend to do.
• You can also scoop out about 2 cups of the soup and transfer it to a blender or food processor. Blend until creamy and transfer it back to the soup pot.
• Or, you can simply mash a few of the potatoes with a potato masher, leaving it on the slightly chunkier side. It's up to you!
• After you've creamified it, give it another taste and add plenty of salt and pepper if needed.
• Scoop out a little for the kids and keep it simple for them with shredded Cheddar and a kiss of chives! (Chives are optional, of course.) As for you, adult faces, load up your bowls with plenty of chopped bacon, Cheddar, little dollops of sour cream, sliced jalapenos and chives!

ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS: CHEESY BREAKFAST SANDWICH

Steps:

• To make the kids' sandwich: Crack two eggs into a small bowl. Add the milk and Parmesan, and lightly beat until combined.
• Heat a teaspoon of oil in a small saute pan over medium-low heat, and add the egg mix. Slowly scramble the eggs until just set and fluffy.
• Place the scrambled eggs on 1 toasted English muffin half, and top with 1/2 cup Cheddar. You can let the cheese melt naturally or place it under the broiler to get it browned and bubbly (which is the right decision in life). It's done!
• Now to make your sandwich: Heat another teaspoon of oil in your saute pan. Add the spinach and wilt, about 20 seconds. Remove from the pan and add the red onion and sun-dried tomatoes. Let them sear and blister for about a minute. Remove and place them with the spinach.
• If you need to add a little more oil at this time, go for it. Crack the remaining egg into the saute pan and let fry until the white is set but the yolk is still runny, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• In the meantime, place the remaining 1/4 cup cheese on the top half of the English muffin, and toast in the broiler until the cheese melts.
• Place the spinach, red onion and sun-dried tomatoes on the bottom half of the toasted muffin. Then layer with the fried egg and cheesy top half.

CHEESY POTATO CALZONE

Steps:

• Place the flour, yeast and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre and pour int he water. Using your hand to mix, bring the ingredients together to form a soft, pliable dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead vigorously for 5-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and stretchy.
• Rub a little oil over the surface of the dough, cover with a clean tea towel and leave in a warm place for about an hour or until doubled in size.
• Meanwhile, cook the potatoes in boiling water for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drainw well and mash with the milk. Stir in the cheese, onion, basil, salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 220C/450F/gas 7. Divide the dough in half and roll out each half into very thin 30cm rounds. Spoon the potato mix onto one half of each of the rounds. Dampen the edges and fold over the dough, pressing with your fingers to seal.
• Place the calzone on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes until crusty and golden.
