Stromboli

My friend Mandy makes a mean stromboli! I had never tried stromboli (which is similar to a calzone) before hers and it is wonderful! Of course I had to get the recipe from her. It's super easy and delicious. Thanks Mandy! (You can get the meat sliced fresh in the deli of your grocery store.)




Stromboli

submitted by Brittany

1 Rhodes bread dough

1/4 lb ham, sliced

1/4 lb hard salami (I goofed and made it with pastrami and it was still so good!)

1/4 lb provolone

mozzarella cheese

1/2 tsp dried basil, divided

1/2 tsp dried oregano, divided

melted butter or olive oil

cornmeal

Set out bread dough to thaw. Once thawed, spread the dough out on a cookie sheet or silpat (which works perfect). Layer the ham and then the salami along the middle of the dough going lengthwise. Sprinkle with 1/4 tsp each of basil and oregano then layer on cheeses. (I used approximately 1 cup shredded mozzarella but it's entirely up to you how much you want!) Sprinkle with remaining basil and oregano. Wet edges of the dough and fold over the long edges and roll up the ends. Brush olive oil over dough and sprinkle lightly with corn meal. Carefully flip stromboli over and repeat on other side. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-22 minutes. Serve with hot spaghetti sauce for dipping. Enjoy!

  1. Yum! This will work great for my family. We have one vegetarian so I can leave out the meat on her section and still have a great family meal.

  13. I love this recipe!!! I used the pastrami also. I also threw in some fresh baby spinach on top of the meat layers. I used my sister in laws bread stick recipe for the dough (no rise) because it is so easy. I love, love this site and Mel's too! :)
