My kids just love Stromboli and would eat it everyday, if I felt like making the dough...LOL! I decided to take the easy way out and used a store bought crust, which I rarely ever do. It turned out terrific and even tastier than I thought it would be. Was a real hit with my family and I'll be using store bought more often...I was impressed. Serve at your next party...it will surely be a big hit! Enjoy!

How To Make ~ ez stromboli ~ my way

  • Step 1
    In a medium to large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Heat. Now, add the sausage, ground beef, onion, garlic and pepperoni, oregano, salt and pepper. Breaking up the meat as it cooks. Stirring often.
  • Step 2
    Once meat is no longer pink, drain. Let cool for a few minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degree F. Grease a sheet pan.
  • Step 3
    Unroll crust and place on prepared sheet pan.I don't spread the dough any larger.
  • Step 4
    Lay 4 slices of the provolone cheese on the one long side of crust, leaving a one inch border on every edge. Spoon browned meat and veggies over the cheese. Next spread the sauce over the meat and then top with remaining cheese slices.
  • Step 5
    Carefully fold the meatless side of dough over the filling and pinch all edges to seal. Brush the top of dough with melted butter and sprinkle with a few pinches of oregano.
  • Step 6
    Place in oven and bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Step 7
    Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice like a loaf of bread and serve with extra warmed pizza sauce. Delicious!
