Meaty Calzones

This recipe came from meals.com. Using the pre-made dough makes these much quicker, and they are so yummy. I frequently "customize" the ingredients, but am posting the original recipe.

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 3⁄4 lb ground beef
• 1  cup  marinara sauce or 1  cup  pizza sauce
• 1  tablespoon  italian seasoning
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
• 1  package  prepared pizza crust
• 1  cup  shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1  egg, beaten
• 1  tablespoon water

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400.
2. Spray baking sheet with non-stick spray.
3. Brown the meat, drain and transfer to mixing bowl.
4. Add marinara and Italian seasoning; mix together well.
5. Add salt and pepper.
6. Make 4 circles from the dough, approx.
7. 8 inches in diameter.
8. Place circles on baking sheet and spoon 1/4 of the meat mixture onto each circle, being careful not to place too close to the edge (it won't seal and your fillings will leak out).
9. Top each circle with 1/4 of the cheese.
10. Fold over one edge and press down to seal, using your finger or an oiled wooden spoon handle.
11. Brush top of calzone with a mixture of beaten egg and water.
12. Bake for 15 minutes, or until crust is golden.
