Easy and Quick Calzones

This calzone recipe requires none of the wait.
The frozen dough eliminates the labor behind
the crust but tastes as good as homemade.

Ingredients
1 pound bag frozen pizza dough, thawed
6-ounce package pepperoni, chopped
1 cup ricotta
1 cup shredded mozzarella
2 tablespoons olive oil
16-ounce jar pasta sauce, such as marinara
Grated Parmesan

Directions:
Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
Cut the dough into quarters and shape into 4 balls. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix the pepperoni, ricotta, and mozzarella.
Roll or pull each ball into a 7-inch circle.
Spoon 1/4 of the pepperoni filling onto the center of each.
Fold over and pinch the edges together.
Place on a baking sheet and brush with the oil.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden.
Meanwhile, heat the sauce, then spoon it over the calzones.
Top with the Parmesan.
