Sorry I taped the show and all I come up with is creamed spinach in that one day only. I also googled "meredith laurence spinach bake" and came up with nothing but those large pasta shells filled with cheese and spinach. Sorry.

Thank you M0rgan. After they showed her cutting it they went right into her cheesy chicken bites. That spinach thing looked amazing! Thank you again for trying to find that out for me!

If you are on Facebook, maybe you could ask Meredith on her facebook page.

M0rgan...

Thank you for that idea! Ok, you may find this odd...but I do not have a Facebook. My husband nor I have ever had one. It is great to be able to keep up with people, but sometimes along with the *GOOD stuff there is too much drama or TMI. With that, we decided it wasnt't for us. Thank you again. I will try to get someone that has one to do that for me. God bless!

Thanks again M0rgan. Oh, I definitely had FOOD on the brain in my post about not having Facebook. I had to fix it. I had put "along with food stuff there is the drama etc..." I meant to say along with the "good" stuff. People put good things on there but then you have the politics, drama you know...I hear and see enough drama and political talk through TV and daily life...I do not need it on a personal page I created...nor do I care to know what you ate for every meal of the day and when you showered or went to the bathroom...lol. I also have no urge to tell the world the same regarding myself. Have a blessed day!

I watched the video & she never did talk about it since they were talking to a caller & the show ended. I finally found it's called Spinach and Ricotta Calzone with Marinara Sauce but not the recipe. Pic on FB. Maybe someone has her recipe & can post it for you.

@Nightowlz @ArmyWife101

The picture that Nightowlz posted from Facebook is from Meredith Laurence's new cookbook "Air Fry Everything" -- the title there is "Spinach and Cheese Calzone". I haven't been able to find it posted anywhere online.

I did find this one on Allrecipes:

Sausage, Spinach and Ricotta Calzone

Prep 20 min Cook 15 m Ready In 35

"Italian sausage and spinach are a great combination!"

Crust:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, or more if needed
1 envelope Fleischmann's(R) Pizza Crust Yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup very warm water (120 degrees to 130 degrees F)*
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Filling:
8 ounces Italian sausage

2 cups fresh spinach leaves
1/4 cup water
3/4 cup ricotta cheese
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 egg
1 teaspoon Spice Islands(R) Italian Herb Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon Spice Islands(R) Crushed Red Pepper
1/2 teaspoon Spice Islands(R) Garlic Salt
Pizza sauce OR marinara sauce
Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Combine 1 cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add very warm water and oil; mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Gradually add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky. Knead** on a floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes. Cover and let rest on floured surface while preparing filling.
Cook sausage in skillet over medium-high heat until cooked through; remove from skillet and drain excess fat. Add spinach and water to skillet; saute 1 to 2 minutes until spinach is wilted; drain. Return sausage to pan.
Combine ricotta, mozzarella and egg in a mixing bowl. Stir in Italian herb seasoning, crushed red pepper and garlic salt; set aside.
To make calzones divide dough into four portions. Roll 1 portion into an 8-inch circle on a floured surface. Spread approximately 1/3 cup ricotta mixture in center bottom half of dough. Top with heaping 1/3 cup sausage spinach mixture leaving outer 1/2-inch free of filling. Fold top half of dough over filling. Pull edge of lower crust over top; folding and pressing layers together to form a seal. Carefully transfer to greased baking sheet. Cut 3 to 4 vents in top. Repeat with remaining dough. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until lightly browned. Transfer to cooling rack to keep bottom crust crisp while cooling slightly. Serve with pizza sauce or other sauce for dipping.

There is also a Sara Moulton's Spinach and Ricotta Calzone that comes up on a Google Search.

@Honeybit Thx. I saw there were several recipes online for it. I figure Meredith's recipe is in her new Air Fryer cookbook but not sure since they never list the contents/index when Q sells cookbooks. I'm sure someone has bought her cookbook & would know if it's in there or not. If I had it I would post it. Nothing wrong with sharing.
