Whole Wheat Spinach Calzone

  1. Whole Wheat Spinach Calzone
  2. 1 cup Greek Yogurt
  3. 4 ounces 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened 
  4. 1/4 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
  5. (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained, and squeezed dry
  6. 1 cup organic salsa
  7. 1 teaspoon chipotle sauce
  8. 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  9. 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper $
  10. Whole wheat pizza dough recipe
  11. Olive Oil
  12. 1/4 cup (1 ounce) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  13. 1/4 cup (1 ounce) shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese $
  14. Pizza sauce recipe



Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°.
  2. Combine first 4 ingredients; beat with a mixer at medium speed 2 minutes or until well-blended. Stir in spinach, salsa, chipotle sauce,garlic powder, and black pepper.
  3. Pat pizza crust onto a baking sheet coated with olive oil; pat into a 14 x 10-inch rectangle. Spread spinach mixture over half of the crust, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar over spinach mixture. Fold dough over filling; press edges together to seal.
  4. *I doubled the Whole Wheat pizza dough recipe and made mini calzones to freeze for the kids lunch later. 
  5. Bake at 425° for 15 minutes or until browned. Cool on a wire rack 5 minutes. Heat pasta sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cut calzone into 6 squares, and top with sauce.
