A calzone (Italian “stocking”) is a turnover that originated in Italy. It is made of ingredients similar to pizza folded over and shaped like a crescent.  The typical calzone is stuffed with tomato and mozzarella, and may include other ingredients usually associated with pizza toppings.

If you’re into Monical’s big flavor in a new “package,” you should check out our version of Italy’s traditional calzone.  We start with our pan dough, fill it with Part-Skim Mozzarella, Puree and any three toppings (with a few exceptions that we’ve found don’t cook well). The dough is then rolled over into a half moon shape, sprinkled with Shredded Parmesan Cheese and baked to a golden brown.  It’s part pizza, part pie and part sandwich.  The best part is it still contains the same ingredients as every Monical’s pizza, but a completely new shape.

For pizza lovers, Monical’s calzone is an old favorite in a new form.  It will be satisfying to large appetites and to those looking to not only try something a little different, but an Italian calzone with a definite Monical’s twist.  The catch is that it’s only available for a limited time, so if new is your thing then you’ll want to check it out pretty soon.
