Calzones are the subject of much debate: Why calzone? Why stray from an idea as perfect as pizza?! Some even go as far as to say calzones are just pizza’s evil cousin. But I am not a man of controversy, and I don’t go around name calling. For those of you who appreciate enclosed/folded pizza (aka a calzone), this one is for you. If you find calzones offensive, then consider this a “meatball sub” sandwich or a cheese and broccoli sandwich (I even styled it in such a way to avoid backlash).

All jokes aside, for this recipe I tried Impossible “meat” and I found it to be far superior to its mock-meat competitors. I made “meatballs” with it and tasted them plain. They were a bit less fluffy than my regular meatballs. It tasted like it was worked a bit (the way most people make meatballs or burgers). I have always seen meatball sub sandwiches or meatball calzones and thought they looked amazing. It’s good to know all those years I spent drooling over them was not in vain. They do taste amazing! The minute the photos were done, Yossi Einhorn and I ate them. They are definitely worth a try.
