I have been searching since I was in high school for a recipe to make these like a local Italian pizzaria used to make but the catch was the ole girl used to deep fry hers and man o man they were sooo good! Anyone have a dough recipe that deep fries well with these toppings inside?

Made a vegetarian variation and it turned out really well. Easy and delicious!

Excellent recipe and very easy to make. A nice switch from regular pizza! I made each calzone with different fillings,(ham, sliced green olives, pepperoni,green peppers)I also brushed them with olive oil and Italian spices instead of the beaten egg.

It was very good. It was a little tricky to fold at first but then I got the hang of it. I made a double recipe so i could freeze a few for lunches...Would definitely make again and add bacon and other pizza toppings. The beauty is that everyone gets their favorite.

Not as easy as you may think, but still fairly quick. My kids loved it. I substitute with whatever I have on hand. Ham & swiss for example.

I made this for my son's birthday party and it was a hit with the kids. It's not a very good make-ahead recipe though. May make again for an occasional treat.

I didn't like the way the dough tasted with the cheese and pizza sauce
