Drain.", "In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, mozzarella, garlic, seasonings, pepperoni and cooked sausage. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.", "Roll dough out to a 15"" circle on a pizza paddle or baking sheet that has been lightly dusted with cornmeal. It doesn't have to be a perfect circle.", "Spread meat and cheese filling over 1 side of the dough. Leave at least 1-inch of the edge without filling to ensure a tight seal.", "Lift 1 side of dough and fold over so that it meets the other side, forming a half moon, and pinch the edges together to seal, using a fork to press edges together. Remove any excess dough which isn't needed for the seal.", "Brush with olive oil and sprinkle some parmesan cheese over top.", "Cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to release.", "Transfer calzone from pizza pad to pizza stone in oven.", "Bake 10-15 minutes, until puffed up golden brown.", "Let stand 5 minutes before serving.", "Heat the marinara sauce in the microwave for dipping."]
