Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes
Chill: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

1/2 cup self-rising flour

1/2 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt

1 tsp. Italian seasoning

1/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

3 tbsp. low-fat cottage cheese

3 tbsp. pizza sauce

3 oz. (about 4) frozen precooked turkey meatballs, thawed and chopped

Directions:

In a large bowl, mix flour, yogurt, and Italian seasoning until dough forms. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine mozzarella, cottage cheese, sauce, and chopped meatballs.

Shape dough into two circles, each about 6 inches in diameter and 1/4-inch thick. Place them on the baking sheet.

Spoon filling over one half of each circle, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Fold the top half of each circle over the filling so the edges meet. Firmly press edges with a fork to seal.

Spray an air fryer with nonstick spray. Place calzones in the air fryer, and spray with nonstick spray.

Set air fryer to 360ºF. Cook until tops are light golden brown and dough is cooked through, 13–15 minutes.

MAKES 2 SERVINGS

Oven Alternative: Bake at 385ºF for 15–17 minutes, until light golden brown.
 
HG Tips: Make your dough a day or two in advance, then cover and refrigerate. Use flour on your hands and the surface to make it easier to work with.

Slash Fat & Calories! 5 Easy Uses for the Ultimate PB Swap

PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter

This must-have pantry staple will help you cut calories left and right without feeling deprived! Stock up on PB2 Original Powdered Peanut Butter and PB2 Cocoa Peanut Powder—they’re significantly lower in fat and calories than traditional peanut butter. Just 50–60 calories and 1–2.5g total fat in a 2-tbsp. serving, plus 4–6g plant-based protein! Mix with water for a smart peanut butter spread, and try these delicious everyday uses...

1. Make a sweet dip for fruit! An ordinary fruit snack becomes a lot more appealing when paired with a decadent-tasting peanut butter dip! Just mix PB2 into plain or vanilla yogurt. (Optional: Add sweetener and cinnamon.)

2. Stir into oatmeal! Upgrade your breakfast and set yourself up for healthy-eating success throughout the day. PB2 mixes easily into oatmeal and doesn’t turn out gritty like some protein powders.

3. Spike your shakes and frozen coffee drinks! PB + coffee = so good! Blend java with PB2, sweetener, and your milk of choice for a creamy drink with extra protein.

4. Mix up a savory sauce you’ll put on everything! This is a great way to add flavor to ordinary chicken, fish, veggies… even salads! Dissolve PB2 in a little water, then add soy sauce, seasoned rice vinegar, and a little sriracha.

5. Freeze into mini desserts! Mix PB2 with water, then stir into light whipped topping (thawed from frozen). Spoon into a muffin pan and freeze until solid. A great low-calorie fix for your sweet tooth!
