ITALIAN STROMBOLI

Prepare the Garlic Butter Mixture:
Melt the butter in the microwave.
Mix in the minced garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
Prepare the Baking Sheet:
Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
Stretch the pizza crust out to almost the size of your baking sheet.
Layer the Meats and Cheese:
Layer the deli meats: start with the ham, followed by the salami, and then the pepperoni.
Layer the cheese on top of the meats.
Roll the Stromboli:
Roll the Stromboli lengthwise and ensure to seal the seam well.
Seal the ends by pinching them and molding the excess dough to the underside of the Stromboli.
Score and Top the Stromboli:
Score the top a few times with a serrated knife to allow steam to escape while baking.
Brush the top of the Stromboli with the garlic butter mixture.
Bake the Stromboli:
Follow the baking instructions on the back of the Pillsbury pizza crust tube. Typically, this is the same bake time as a regular pizza, but you won’t need to par-bake the crust.
Bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted inside.
Serve:
Slice the Stromboli and serve hot. You can enjoy it with a side of marinara or red sauce for dipping.
Tips and Variations:
Customize the Filling: Feel free to experiment with different deli meats and cheeses. Turkey, roast beef, or Swiss cheese can make great alternatives.
Add Vegetables: For a more substantial filling, consider adding vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or spinach.
Herb Variations: Try adding Italian seasoning or basil to the garlic butter mixture for an extra burst of flavor.
Dipping Sauces: While marinara sauce is a classic choice, ranch or garlic aioli can also be delicious options for dipping.
Enjoy your homemade Stromboli, perfect for a cozy night in or serving to guests!
