I made Stromboli for dinner tonight, based off this recipe. I was looking for a calzone recipe originally, then stromboli fever hit me. They're really similar food items, just the calzone is a pocket, whereas you roll up a stromboli.I used our favorite pizza crust recipe, Jay's Signature Pizza Crust, which is big enough for two pizzas. I made a full recipe of the dough and split it in half to make two stromboli. I used roast beef, turkey, and ham since that's what lunch meat we had, plus monterrey jack, swiss, and parmesan cheeses. Ashlee actually liked it, so that was pleasantly surprising. Some other recipes I found called for italian sausage, onions, peppers, olives, mushrooms, etc.
Roll out the dough about 12" by 10"
Layer on the meat and cheese, leaving about an inch around the edge
Sprinkle on italian seasoning
Roll it up (starting from the skinnier edge)
Set it seam-side down on a pan sprinkled with corn meal.
Brush on egg white or olive oil and add poppy seeds, sesame seeds, garlic salt, parmesan, or whatever you feel like on top. You may add some decorative knife cuts if you'd like. (I did and it kind of split open and oozed out, which isn't actually a bad thing if you like crispy dripping cheese like I do.)
Bake on a pizza stone at 375 for about 35 minutes (or just on the pan if you don't have a stone).
Serve with marinara or spaghetti sauce to dip it in.

This looks like a Rob recipe..
Hey, those looked good enough to eat! Wish we could have been there. I just noticed that we are not on your "Family and Friends" list. What gives? Are we dog meat?
That looks tasty, the kids might even like it. They love calzones. We'll have to give it a try.
that looks delicious and if I had energy or desire to cook today, I would totally make it. :)
um...that basically looks amazing. seriously...where do you find the time to make such creations? i really want to try that out, but the thought of making my own bread freaks me out. is it hard? i'm the worst homemaker ever!
Holy Cow! That looks yummy! Of course it is dinner time, and I haven't started dinner yet. Wish I had that in my oven now.
Are you for hire? :-)
This looks yummy! Like the baby catcher said, 'wish I had one in my oven now'!
