Nadine's Calzones

1 cup sweet potato, cooked, mashed and cooled*

1/3 cup arrowroot flour

1/4 tsp sea salt 

1/2 cup chopped veggies (like broccoli or cabbage) OR organic, grass-fed ground meat of choice*

1/4 cup sliced olives (optional)

1 garlic, minced

1/2 tsp dried Italian herb seasoning

1 bunch spinach, kale or cilantro (chopped)

1 tsp olive oil

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and arrange an oven rack in the middle of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Have an extra sheet of parchment paper handy.

In a food processor, combine the sweet potato, arrowroot starch and sea salt until fully combined.

Spoon the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Place the extra sheet of parchment on top of the dough and use it to assist you in shaping the dough into an 8-inch diameter circle.

On one half of the circle, distribute the meat/veggies, olives, garlic, seasoning, and spinach evenly. Use the bottom piece of parchment paper to assist you in folding the other half of the dough on top of the filling to form the calzone. It will look like a half-circle.

Brush the olive oil all over the calzone. Use a fork and the help of your fingers to gently seal the dough.

Bake the calzone for 28 to 30 minutes until the edges are lightly golden brown. Turn the broiler on high and broil for 2 to 4 minutes until the top of the calzone is a golden brown and crispy in spots.

Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing in half.

Notes:

*We have learned that baking peeled and chopped sweet potato allows for a better dough. Cooking can create too much moisture, steaming may be another option.

*Use whatever combination of protein (meat or beans) and vegetables you prefer. Cheese also works inside the calzones.

*To make a larger amount of calzones we have found that 1- 5lb bag of sweet potato and 1 1/2 lbs of ground meat and desired amount of veg makes approximately 12 calzones.
