Stromboli

These pictures have been sitting on my camera for weeks now. The night I was supposed to blog this Chris came home and told us that he's more than likely deploying in the Spring. :( For a while I've been in a slump and haven't taken many pictures but I'm definitely going to make the effort to get more stuff on here :). So here it goes. 

  Stromboli is a family favorite in our house.  It's basically a rolled up pizza and it's the easiest thing to put together.  What I love about this recipe is you can put in or take out whatever you'd like.  

Preheat your oven to 400.  My pizza dough is hiding under my veggies.  I choose to make it homemade because it's pretty easy.  You can use whatever dough you like, whether it be in a can or package. 

1 cup of lukewarm water

1 packet of yeast

2-3 cups of flour

1 tbs sugar

seasonings if you'd like: oregano, basil, thyme.

Mix your water and yeast together and let it sit in a cup for about 5 minutes to activate.  It's important to remember that your water can't be too cool or the yeast won't activate and it can't be too hot or it will "kill" the yeast. 

Add all other ingredients and let the dough sit, covered for 20 minutes. 

Throw some pizza sauce, toppings and plenty of cheese on there.

Roooolll her up..

Make a few slits in the top.. The one thing I forgot to do tonight was brush an egg wash on top so it'd brown nicely.  

Bake her for about 10-15 minutes

Enjoy!
