Recipe: Stromboli




This recipe is so easy and so delicious! Stromboli, if you don't already know, is a pizza-stuffed pastry. Pizza in a Pocket, if you will. My favorite thing about stromboli is how well it freezes after it's been baked. Perfect for future fast meals!


Ingredients:
2 loaves thawed bread dough (find it frozen in the freezer section of your supermarket)
Jarred pizza or spaghetti sauce (or see the recipe box for a way to make your own homemade sauce)
Grated mozzarella or provolone cheese
Optional pizza toppings: (Pepperoni, sliced ham, mushrooms, sliced onion, tomatoes, spinach and/or other favorites)

How to make this recipe:
Preheat oven to 450 F.

Using a large knife, cut thawed loaf of bread dough into four to five equal pieces. On a flour-sprinkled surface, roll pieces into small circles about five to six inches in diameter. Using a spoon, spread a small amount of pizza sauce onto each circle and sprinkle with grated cheese and/or other toppings. The key here is to using the toppings sparingly! Too much and it will be impossible to seal the pocket. Kids can help with this part, too.

Next, carefully fold dough in half, pinching the edges together to seal the toppings within the pocket. Place pockets on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for ten minutes or when bread becomes a golden brown.

Serve hot, with a salad on the side.
