Italian Stromboli: A Savory, Stuffed Delight Perfect for Any Meal

Serving: Serve your Italian Stromboli as a main dish with a side salad or roasted vegetables. It’s also great for parties, sliced into small pieces for a fun, shareable appetizer.
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the Stromboli slices in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes until warmed through.
Variants:

Vegetarian Stromboli: Skip the sausage and pepperoni and fill your Stromboli with a variety of sautéed vegetables like mushrooms, spinach, and zucchini for a meatless version.
Chicken Stromboli: Swap the Italian sausage for cooked, shredded chicken breast for a lighter alternative.
Spicy Stromboli: Add some crushed red pepper flakes to the filling for a spicy kick or use spicy sausage instead of regular sausage.
FAQ:

1. Can I make Stromboli ahead of time? Yes, you can prepare the Stromboli in advance, assemble it, and refrigerate it until ready to bake. Just brush the dough with the egg wash before baking to achieve a beautiful golden color.

2. Can I freeze Stromboli? Yes, you can freeze Stromboli before baking. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil, and freeze for up to 2 months. When ready to bake, thaw it in the fridge overnight and bake as instructed.

3. Can I use store-bought dough? Absolutely! If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought pizza dough instead of making it from scratch. This will speed up the process while still delivering a delicious Stromboli.
