Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/3 cups -water
2 tablespoons Olive oil
2/3 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Oregano
4 cups Bread flour
2 1/2 teaspoons Yeast
-----SPINACH FILLING-----
10 1/2 ounces Frozen chopped spinach
Garlic powder
2 tablespoons Olive oil
1 cup Provolone cheese -- grated +-
1 cup Mozzarella cheese -- grated +-

Remove dough from machine and roll it into circles of approximately 8 inches.
Spread filling on one half of the circle leaving a border around it for
closing.
Close the >> calzone by folding the unfilled side on top of the filled
side and crimping the edges closed with your fingers or a fork. Place on a
lightly greased baking pan. Let rise approx. 30 minutes. Brush lightly with
olive oil and bake at 500 degrees for 20-30 minutes or until puffed and golden.
(I bake them at 485 degrees for 15 minutes in my oven.) The original recipe
says to put 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons each or ricotta and grated mozzarella cheese
in each calzone. >> My favorite filling is the following......
SPINACH FILLING : Saute thawed spinach in olive oil and garlic powder until all
water has evaporated. (I squeeze out excess liquid first) Mix cheeses into
spinach. You may substitute frozen chopped broccoli for spinach.
