Carb Conscious Calzones




I recently rediscovered a recipe my mom used to make us when we were little. I never knew it was "healthy" for us. These little calzones are so delicious and easy.


  • 8 Large whole wheat tortillas


  • 3 cups part skim milk ricotta cheese


  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese


  • 1/4 Parmesan cheese


  • 6 slices ham lunch meat, chopped into pieces


  • 1 medium tomato, cubed


  • salt and pepper


  • 8 pieces tin foil


  • tomato sauce

Preheat oven to 350. Mix together ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, chopped up ham and tomato, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Mix well. To stuff calzones take a piece of foil, then place one tortilla on top. Add in about 1/2 a cup of ricotta mixture, and wrap up tortilla like a burrito, then tightly wrap foil around the calzone and place on baking sheet. Continue to do this with all 8. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Serve with tomato sauce for dipping!
