Sausage & Pepperoni Stromboli

Stromboli - that warm, meat and cheese Italian turnover, gently dipped into homemade sauce is one beautiful slice of comfort food.  Everyone in our family loves, and I mean LOVES, Stromboli.

I am always drawn to recipes that can be changed up so that my family and friends can enjoy something they  really like which makes this one a winner.  My traditional recipe combines Italian sausage, cheese and pepperoni but there are multiple ways of changing this up.

 then roll out the dough and pop it in the oven.

Make a little sauce, then in less than an hour, you've got a wonderful meal to share with your family.

 By the way…you can make a couple of different versions, keep cool in the fridge till time to bake then serve for game day or casual entertaining!

Sausage & Pepperoni Stromboli
1 ball or roll of pizza dough (homemade is great but I used store-bought)
1 lb Italian sausage
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 package sliced pepperoni
2 cups pizza sauce
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 egg
  • Cook Italian sausage in a medium skillet until browned.  Drain on paper towels and crumble into small pieces.
  • Heat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Place parchment paper on a baking pan and lightly flour.  Roll dough out to form a large rectangle.
  • Brush a thin layer of pizza sauce on dough.  Layer on crumbled sausage then mozzarella cheese.
  • Place pepperoni slices on top of cheese then sprinkle with 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
  • Gently roll in short sides of dough to form a seal around filling.
  • Starting on long side of dough, carefully roll into one third of Stromboli.  Using parchment, roll dough again until reaching opposite end.  Pinch together and place seam side down.
  • Mix egg with 1 tablespoon of water.  Brush egg mixture over Stromboli and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 Parmesan cheese.
  • Place in oven and IMMEDIATELY TURN OVEN DOWN to 350 degrees.
  • Bake for approximately 18 minutes.  Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.  
    • Test center of turnover.  If dough is not completely cooked, slice Stromboli in half and bake for additional 5-8 minutes.
  • Serve with warm pizza sauce

  6. My son asked for some 'boli's for his birthday dinner. We made four variations. Pepperoni/Sausage/Cheese, Pepperoni/Cheese, Pepperoni/Salami/Capocolo, Pepperoni/Salami, and, for my youngest, Cheese (no sauce). All came out great. This recipe is insanely good!!!
