Salami-Mozzarella Calzone

This is super easy to put together and super delicious.  You can have it plain like this or add steamed or pickled vegetables.  Either way is amazing!  Enjoy!
 Ingredients:
-2 eggs
-1 Tbs dry parsley
-1 tsp grated lemon zest
-1/4 lb shredded mozzarella
-extra virgin olive oil for brushing
-1 (13.8 oz) tube refrigerated pizza dough
-about 16 slices salami
-about 6 slices smoked provolone cheese
Directions:
Place a baking sheet upside down in the oven.  Preheat oven to 400 F.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs, parsley and lemon zest.  Pour a half the egg mixture into a bigger bowl and stir in the mozzarella.  Reserve the remaining egg mixture for brushing the crust.
Spread a piece of parchment paper on your counter and brush with extra virgin olive oil (not too much).  Unroll the pizza dough and shape into a rectangle.  Spread mozzarella mixture on half of it, leaving a 1-inch border along the edge.  Top with salami and provolone cheese.  Fold the other half and cover the filling.  Crimp and roll the edges, then pierce the top of the dough a few times with a knife.
Slide the parchment paper with the calzone on top of the hot baking sheet inside the oven.  Bake for 15 minutes.  Brush with remaining egg mixture and bake for 5 more minutes.  Remove from the oven, let rest for about 5 minutes, slice and enjoy!
