I made this calzone for my family and the results were horrible!!!!! I think the combination of the provolone cheese and the kalamata olives made this so salty that we could'nt eat it. I love the concept of a calzone so I will make it again and instead of kalamata olives I'll use black olives, and instead of provolone I will substitute a milder cheese.

I was amazed at how easy it was and how flavorful. Overall it went well but did some things different, WW pizza dough and regular olives versus kalamata as we had some to use up.
The first night, found having the salami was too salty. I think I would use peperoni instead. Noticed it wasn't as salty on other nights though as left overs..I would also like to split the dough in thirds and make smaller calazones, personal size. I think it would be better for presentation and portions. Will definately try again.

I used ham instead of salami, and smoked mozzarella instead of fontina. I also added some sliced artichoke hearts. So delicious! The kalamata olives add such an amazing and richness. flavor. This is a great recipe to prepare for parties.

Made this recipe a couple nights ago and it turned out great. Fontina cheese was just too expensive so i substituted it with mozzarella instead but it was still great. Also we are vegetarians so i didn"t put the salami but instead i put mushrooms. All around a great recipe though.

I surprised myself with how good this calzone came out! I followed Giada's recipe completely except that I used a pizza dough from Trader Joe's. The flavors of the roasted red peppers, cheese, salami, and olives were fantastic! The cornmeal for dusting was a great addition to the bottom. I baked the calzone on a pizza crisper pan on top of aluminum foil and it came out with this crust that I thought would only come from the pizza place. A definite repeat recipe!!!

The hardest part in making this recipe for me was to STOP EATING the filling before I assembled the calzone. It ended up just a tad skinnier because of that! It's a wonderful tasting treat. The cheeses were fantastic but I think I could use shredded mozzarella sometimes to save time and money, Thanks from Alabama, Giada! LOVE IT!

This is a really easy and tasty recipe. I've often had trouble making homemade pizza in the past -- the crust has never come out right for me, no matter what I seem to do -- but this calzone was a cinch. I fill it with my own combination of ingredients. Either way, you really can't go wrong!

I used salami the fist time and it came out a little bit salty but still good, the second time I used cooked and cubed hot italian sausage and it was great!!! I got the dough from the local pizza place for $1 and that made the dish so much easy and quick!!!

Such an easy dish for such an unbelieveable meal! The most time consuming is make the homemade crust, but believe me it is worth the effort. Even the most pickest eaters in the family come back for seconds with this one. Be sure to serve a good marinara sauce in individual cups for dipping.
