Title: Tortilla Calzones
Post by: Marilyn on June 22, 2004, 10:53:44 PM
Tortilla Calzones

1 cup part skim mozzarella cheese, grated

4 whole wheat tortillas

½ lb ground chicken, turkey, or lean beef (season to your liking), or crumbled tofu sausage

½ cup chopped green or red bell pepper

½ cup chopped mushrooms (canned or fresh)

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1 cup marinara sauce

Parmesan cheese (optional)

 

Spread about ¼ cup grated cheese on each tortilla. Spread to the edges. Bake at 425 degrees until the cheese melts. 
Top with a layer of spinach leaves.
Brown the ground meat or tofu, bell pepper, and mushrooms.
Portion onto the four tortillas.
Fold tortillas in half, forming a calzone.
Use a fork to crimp the edges and seal the tortilla halves.

Bake in the 425 degree oven until crisp, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Serve with heated marinara sauce, and if desired, top each with 1 tsp. Parmesan cheese.

Serves 4
