  4. Split the dough in half and roll out each half on a floured surface into a 10” circle. Place 1-2 cups of sauce in the center of each circle of dough. Top with mozzarella cheese.
  5. Fold over and crimp shut. Place calzones on a greased cookie sheet.
    Place into the oven and bake for 25 minutes at 375 degrees.
