To prepare, remove the calzone from its packaging. Place it on a baking sheet or directly on the oven rack. Bake in a preheated oven according to the package directions, usually until the crust is golden brown and the filling is heated through. Some people prefer to let it cool slightly before cutting into it to allow the cheese to set. It can be served with a side salad or your favorite dipping sauce for an enhanced meal experience.
