Ham and Cheese Calzones

Makes 8 servings

• 2 (10-ounce) packages refrigerated pizza crust
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 4 to 6 ounces sliced pepperoni
• 2 cups diced fully cooked ham
• 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese
• Shredded Parmesan cheese, optional
• Dried basil, optional
• Meatless spaghetti sauce, warmed

1.  Unroll one pizza crust, stretching gently to make a 14-in. x 11-in. rectangle.

2.  Spread half of the ricotta on half of the dough lengthwise, to within 1 in. of the edges.

3.  Sprinkle with half of the pepperoni, ham and mozzarella.

4.  Fold unfilled side of dough over filled half and press edges together firmly to seal. Transfer to a greased baking sheet.

5.  Repeat with remaining crust and filling ingredients. Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

6.  Sprinkle with Parmesan and basil if desired. Slice into serving-size pieces. Serve with spaghetti sauce.
