Instructions
Coat 1 large baking sheet with cooking spray.
Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add onion and garlic; saut 2 minutes, until soft.
Add oregano and stir to coat.
Divide the onion mixture between two medium bowls. Set aside.
Add broccoli to skillet; cook 3 minutes, until broccoli is crisp-tender.
Remove from heat, and set aside.
In one medium bowl, to onion mixture, add broccoli, 1/2 cup ricotta cheese, 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, and salt.
Mix well to combine; set aside.
In the other medium bowl, to onion mixture, add 1/4 cup ricotta cheese, 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, and tomato sauce.
Mix well to combine, and set aside.
Unroll dough onto baking sheet; half each roll so there are four squares. For 2 of them: Top one side of dough with broccoli mixture, to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Fold untopped side over, so dough meets the other side, forming a half-moon. Pinch the edges to seal together. For the remaining 2: Top one side of dough with pepperoni slices. Top the pepperoni with cheese mixture, to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Fold untopped side over, and pinch edges together to seal.
Brush the tops of calzones with the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil, and sprinkle the tops with 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese.
Bake 25 minutes, until puffed up and golden brown.
Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing in half (or wait until party to slice); serve warm or at room temperature.
