Slavic Stromboli Recipe

"Stromboli is an Italian specialty that resembles a rolled-up pizza and is named after the volcano in Sicily. It's actually an American invention from the 1950s. Eastern Europeans simply adore Italian food (it probably goes back to Queen Bona Sforza). There are many pizza restaurants in the main market squares of large cities. But the Italian recipes appropriated usually have a decidedly Slavic twist, much like this one that I adapted from "Bake: Beautiful Baking Recipes from Around the World" by Edward Gee (Paragon Books Ltd., 2013). I put an Eastern European spin on things by using Polish or Bulgarian cheese, Hungarian or Serbian salami, roasted red bell peppers and spinach. This makes a great party dish, appetizer or family dinner (especially if it's frozen and then baked fresh). Here is a larger photo of Slavic Stromboli.  ..."
