Ham and Cheese Stromboli Recipe

You know how store bought dough is about 27 ingredients in it?Well, this dough only has six, and that is why I love it. Plus, it tastes soooo much better! And did I mention how easy it is?? You just combine the ingredients in the kitchen aid, knead it while you jam to a few of your favorite 80’s hits, and let it rise for 15 minutes. Thats it!

Roll into a rectangle. This dough rolls out like a dream! Make sure you knead it the full five minutes, that will help it keep its form and not shrink back after you roll it. Brush on some melted butter (I love this silicone pastry brush) and sprinkle with garlic bread seasoning.

Sprinkle the cheese in an even layer, and then add more. You can never have enough cheese!

Layer your meats. My kids love Salami, ham and pepperoni.

Roll it up and pinch the ends together, laying it on its seam.

Brush with more butter and sprinkle with parmesan cheese and dried parsley. Make small slices through the top layer to let steam escape, and to make for easier cutting when it’s ready to be served. At this point you can wrap in parchment paper or saran wrap and then double wrap in foil to freeze it.

Place on parchment paper and bake at 375 degrees for about 25 minutes, or until you see the cheese start to bubble out. Oh yeah baby.

I love serving this with my homemade pizza sauce!

I don’t think these slices even made it to my kids plate…they inhaled them so fast!

We had the leftovers for lunch the next day, and they tasted even better! I love when I can make dinner stretch into the next day, it’s definitely the Happy Money Saver way!
