Stromboli

This is so easy and good, purchase just what you need from the deli and assemble.

2 loaves (1 pound each) Rhodes frozen bread dough - thawed
1/2 lb salami, sliced thin
1/2 lb provalone, sliced thin
1/2 lb ham (not water packed), sliced thin
1/4 lb sliced pepperoni, sliced thin
8 oz can pizza sauce
2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 lb mozzarella cheese, sliced thin


1. Roll each loaf into a 2 rectangles (I like to do one at a time).  Do not use any flour, the dough will shrink up and won't roll out.  Rolling out the dough takes a little effort but it will start to form a rectangle.


2. Layer 1/2 ingredients in order down the center of the dough leaving about an inch on the ends and enough dough on sides to fold over all the ingredients.

3. Fold both the sides over ingredients and seal ends. Repeat with other loaf and ingredients.

4. Carefully put both on a large  greased cookie sheet  (seam side down) bake 350 for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown. You’ll want to make sure you bake long enough so that the dough will bake through, don’t take out too early.  Turn pan after 15 minutes to bake evenly.  Also let rest about 10 minutes before slicing.


Hint: Use a good deli ham, not water packed, as it will make bread soggy.
