Key Ingredients
- Pizza dough: Store-bought or homemade—both work wonderfully.
- Cured Italian meats: Think Genoa salami, pepperoni, capicola, or prosciutto.
- Cheese: Mozzarella is a must, but you can add provolone or Parmesan for extra depth.
- Italian seasoning & garlic powder: For that aromatic kick.
- Egg wash: Brushed on top for a beautifully golden crust.
How to Make It
Roll out the dough into a rectangle, then layer your meats and cheeses evenly, leaving a border around the edges. Sprinkle with seasoning, then roll it up tightly like a jelly roll. Seal the edges, transfer it to a baking sheet, and brush the top with egg wash. After baking until golden and bubbling, let it rest a few minutes before slicing into gorgeous, spiral-filled rounds.
Tips for Success
- Don’t overload the filling or the dough may tear or get soggy.
- Let it cool slightly before slicing—this keeps everything from spilling out.
- Add veggies like sautéed spinach or roasted red peppers if you want a more rounded filling.
Serving Ideas
Serve Stromboli warm with a side of marinara sauce for dipping. It’s fantastic as a main dish, party appetizer, or packed in a lunchbox. Leftovers? Just reheat in the oven for a crispy, melty encore.
