Simple Spinach Calzones

Preheat the oven according to the instructions on the can of biscuits. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and saute them in the olive oil until softened. Add garlic and saute about a minute longer. Stir in the Italian seasoning and lemon juice. Throw in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Take two biscuits and squish them together and try to form a ball. Set the ball of dough on a lightly floured surface. Use your rolling pin to roll it out into a flat circle. Try to get it pretty thin. You may need to flour your rolling pin or the top of the dough a little so it doesn’t stick. I started by making 3 of these, and if there is filling left over you can make a fourth. Lay about 2-3 tablespoons of the spinach mixture on one side of the circle of dough leaving a little space on the edges.

Top the spinach on each one with cheese. Fold the dough over the filling (making a 1/2 moon shape) and line up the edges. Use the tip of a fork and press down around the open edge to seal. Brush the tops with beaten egg.

Place them on a greased baking sheet and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are a golden brown. If they are not browning well, do as I did and pop them under the broiler for about a minute at the end of the bake time. Serve heated marinara sauce on the side for dipping!

Note: You may have biscuits left over from the tube so use them for breakfast in the morning with jelly!
