Ingredients

1/2 pound ground round
3/4 cup frozen chopped onion
1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (10-ounce) can refrigerated pizza crust dough
3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella or reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
Cooking spray
1 1/3 cups pasta sauce

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 400°.
2

Cook beef, onion, and garlic in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until beef is browned, stirring to crumble. Drain. Return to pan, and add Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
3

Unroll pizza crust onto an ungreased baking sheet. Cut dough into 4 squares. Press each square into a 6 x 5-inch rectangle. Spoon beef mixture evenly into center of each rectangle; sprinkle evenly with cheese. Bring opposite corners of rectangles together, pinching seams together to seal. Coat tops of calzones with cooking spray.

Bake at 400° for 11 minutes or until lightly browned. Place pasta sauce in a microwave-safe dish; microwave at HIGH 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve calzones with warm pasta sauce.
