Stromboli Recipe

This easy meal is one of my husband’s favorites. I like that this recipe incorporates the colors of red, pink, and white — perfect for a Valentine’s dinner. You can visit our Valentine’s Day Symbols page to learn more about the symbolism and meaning of red, pink, and white for Valentine’s Day.

Ingredients:

1 loaf frozen ready dough*

1 (12 oz) pkg. pepperoni

1 (12 oz) pkg. mozzarella, sliced

1 (6 oz) package ham , thinly sliced

1 egg

2 T. parmesan cheese

pizza sauce

*I use Bridgeford. I have also made homemade dough using the stromboli dough recipe at King Arthur’s Flour.

Directions:

1. Thaw loaf according to package directions.

2. Divide one thawed loaf of ready dough in half.

3. On a lightly floured board, roll each half into a 9-inch square.

4. Cover dough with layers of thinly sliced pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, and thinly sliced ham (image 1 and 2).

5. Roll each piece up tightly in jelly-roll fashion. Using a little flour on fingers, pinch ends and long edge of dough rolls tightly to seal filling in (image 3).

6. Place rolls on a lightly greased baking sheet. Brush lightly with 1 well beaten egg and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese (image 4).

7. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes (or until golden brown).

8. Cut in slices and serve with pizza sauce.
