Ingredients
- 12 ounces swiss chard shopping list
- About 1 tabelspoon olive oil shopping list
- 1 sweet onion (6 oz), such as Vidalia or maui, peeled and cut into thin wedges shopping list
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg shopping list

- 1 pound purchased pizza dough at room temperature shopping list
- 1 cup ricotta cheese shopping list
- 2/3 cup grated parmesan cheese shopping list
- 1/3 cup drained chopped oil packed dried tomatoes shopping list
- ¼ cup toasted pine nuts shopping list
- ¼ teaspoon red chile flakes (optional) shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Trim and discard chard stems; roughly chop leaves. Pour olive oil into a 10 to 12 inch frying pan pver medium high heat. When hot, add onion and stir often until softened, about 4 minutes. Add chard, sprinkle with nutmeg, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir until wilted, 3 to 5 minutes; set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into four equal pieces. Using a lightly floured rolling pin or your hands, roll or streach each piece into a 6 inch round. If dough shrinks, let it rest about 5 minutes, then roll again.
- In a small bowl, mix ricotta parmesan, dried tomatoes, pine nuts, and chili flakes (if using) season with salt and pepper to taste. Mound equal portions of ricotta mixture in center of dough rounds. Top with chard mixture.
- Gently pull half the dough over filling to make a half moon shape. Fold bottom edge of dough over top edge and pinch firmly to seal. Brush tops of calzones lightly with olive oil. Transfer to a large baking sheet.
- Bake calzones on middle rack until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes (15 to 20 in a convection oven). Let cool about 5 minutes, then transfer to plates.
- ENJOY!!
