Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. On a floured surface, roll out 1 lb pizza dough into a 14x10 inch rectangle. Brush the dough lightly with 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle evenly with 1 tsp dried oregano and 1/2 tsp garlic powder.
  2. Step 2: Layer 8 oz sliced ham evenly over the dough, followed by 6 oz sliced provolone cheese and 1/2 cup sliced roasted red peppers, leaving a 1-inch border. Starting from the long side, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape and pinch the edges to seal.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the stromboli seam side down to the baking sheet. Brush the top with 1 beaten egg and cut 3-4 small slits on top for steam to escape. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the crust is golden brown and cheese is melted. Let cool for 5 minutes, then slice and serve warm with 1 cup marinara sauce for dipping.
