Albina is my lovely grandmother who is an amazing person and cook. This family recipe was passed from my grandmother to my mother and now it’s my turn, except that mine is a vegan version. You’ll be glad to know that I’ve done a good and kept the family tradition. Joke aside this calzone is perfect, you can have it as main, starter or slice it into a snack. Give it a go, I guarantee you’ll love it.
