Mr. Meat Eater LOVES stromboli.  I can take it or leave it as it’s not a favorite of mine.  I decided to try this recipe because Mr. Meat Eater is always asking for it and I never make and this recipe looked so easy.  And it was!  It’s also delicious.

I made it as posted except I used shredded Colby/Jack cheese.  I think it would also be great using pizza dough or homemade bread dough.  Changing up the meat to use your favorites would work as well. I also forgot to brush the top with the egg whites.

1 loaf frozen bread dough, thawed
1 tbsp Parmesan cheese
2 eggs, separated
2 tbsp oil
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 lb deli ham, sliced
1/4 lb deli salami, sliced
6 ozs shredded Cheddar cheese

Spread thawed dough in a rectangle on a greased cookie sheet.

In a bowl, mix the Parmesan, egg yolks, oil and seasonings. Spread mixture on top of dough.

Layer meat then cheese.

Roll up jelly-roll style, placing seam side down.

Let sit for about 20 minutes to rise. I didn’t do this and it baked up fine.

Brush the top and sides with egg whites.

Bake, uncovered, at 350º for 30 to 40 minutes, until golden. Mine was done at 30 minutes so I would suggest starting to check right at 30 minutes.

Makes 6 servings.

Happy Cooking!
