Reuben Calzone

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 450 degrees and line baking sheets with Silpat or greased parchment paper (I did neither, but used a pizza stone).
2. 2
   Roll dough out to about 1/4 inch thickness, then cut dough into 4 even pieces for smaller calzones (but you can make them bigger).
3. 3
   Spread some thousand island dressing in the center of the dough, using as little or as much as desired.
4. 4
   Place some cheese on top and top with 3 to 4 slices of corned beef, then a bit of sauerkraut, make sure to squeeze out excess liquid in sauerkraut before using (use a papertowel to blot it).
5. 5
   Finish off the pile with another slice of cheese.
6. 6
   Fold dough over the filling and pinch the edges shut, making sure nothing can leak out.
7. 7
   It might be easier to point them up and pinch them at the top.
8. 8
   Just close it somehow.
9. 9
   Repeat instructions for remaining calzones.
10. 10
    Gently spread a bit of olive oil on the outsides of the calzones before baking, and if desired, sprinkle with salt & pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika.
11. 11
    Slice 2 to 3 holes in the top of the dough so that steam can escape.
12. 12
    Place the calzones in the oven for 17-25 minutes, keeping an eye out for the dough to turn a nice golden brown color.
13. 13
    Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes, then gobble up like a champ!
