-1 loaf frozen Rhodes bread dough, thawed - you'll find it over in the freezer section near the frozen garlic bread and rolls (lately I've been using a tube of refrigerated pizza dough and it works just as well)
-¼ lb. sliced ham
-¼ lb. sliced pepperoni
-½ lb. sliced provolone cheese
-½ lb. sliced American cheese
-Oregano and garlic powder
Lightly grease a cookie sheet. Spread thawed dough out to fit the cookie sheet (this takes a lot of stretching of dough and patience). Down the middle 3rd of the dough, layer the following:
1st – all the ham
2nd – ½ of each of the cheeses (tear cheese in pieces before layering)
3rd – all the pepperoni
4th – the rest of the cheeses
Sprinkle with oregano and garlic powder. Fold sides of dough over center to cover middle. Pinch dough together to seal. Cover with wax paper and let rise for 30-40 minutes. Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Slice in pieces and serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
This is the original recipe that I grew up eating. However, you can EASILY swap out any of the meat or cheeses. Italian sausage (cooked and sliced thin) is fab in this. Mozzarella would also be an obvious choice to add to stromboli. I have no idea how the American cheese ended up in this recipe...but it is good!
