Stromboli Recipe

This is one of my favorite easy meals:

Stromboli Loaf

Make a batch of bread dough. After the first rising, divide the dough as you normally would for loaves and roll each lump out into a rectangle. Spread a thin layer of spaghetti sauce on it, sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese and add any other pizza toppings or spices you like. Roll up the dough, shape into loaves and place in greased loaf pans. Let rise for 30 minutes. Bake as you would bake bread, though I find the loaves need ten to fifteen extra minutes in the oven to bake thoroughly. Allow the baked loaves to cool before slicing. Serve with warm spaghetti sauce to dip the slices in.

Variation: Spread prepared mustard on the rolled out dough and top with cheddar or Swiss cheese and thinly sliced ham. Dip in mustard or mayonnaise.
