These calzones were a bit bland for my taste. The filling was not very flavorful and the dough was a bit dry. I would not recommend this recipe.

I've made these calzones several times and they are always a favorite. They are easy to make and they taste great. I usually add some extra vegetables to the filling, such as mushrooms or bell peppers.
