Awesome-Tasting Food!! // stromboli

How's everyone year going so far? Seeing as we're only 4 days in it should be going good I think. :)

Stromboli is a good thing to eat in the winter so I had to post it for you. We also had it yesterday for supper and it was on my mind. If you're like us, then you change every recipe around until you like it.

Stromboli
Prep:20 min + standing time Bake: 30 min

1 tablespoon active dry yeast

1 cup warm water (110° to 115°)

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

2-3/4 to 3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour 

pizza sauce

sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, mozzarella cheese, and anything else you want to top it with

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the oil, salt, and 2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about  6-8 minutes. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll into a 14-in. x 12-in. rectangle.

Transfer to a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Spoon pizza sauce to within 1/2 in. of the edges. Top with sausage, mushrooms, pepperoni, and cheese. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal and tuck ends under.

Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.  Yield: 1 loaf

For a Italian Stromboli, spread dough with Italian dressing instead of pizza sauce. This is my favorite.
