HAM AND CHEESE STROMBOLI
A pizza in half, much better than calzones. Had them all over in the Italian areas in Philadelphia growing up. Serve with spaghetti sauce or Ranch dressing.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Let dough rise according to package instructions, then punch down, and divide into 4 pieces.
- On a floured surface, roll each piece of dough into a long oval shape. Spread each with sauce, then layer with ham, capacola, salami, and pepperoni. Sprinkle with garlic powder, then top with mozzarella, onion, mushrooms and bell pepper. Bring the long sides together over the center, and pinch together to seal. Turn over, so that the seam is on the bottom, and place on an ungreased baking sheet. With a sharp knife, cut 3 diagonal slices to allow the steam to escape.
- Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown.

EASY HAM AND CHEESE STROMBOLI
I had a lot of leftover deli ham after making Monte Cristo sandwiches and wanted to whip up something quick and easy. This was the result. Good thing my husband wasn't home as my 16 year old son and his girlfriend devoured the whole thing! My son also came up with varieties that he will try. He thinks turkey with pesto would be good. I think you can sub most any cheese, meat and vegetable. I might do thinly sliced flank steak and blue cheese next time.

Steps:
- Spray oil on a cookie sheet and roll out the pie crust on it. Roll and stretch the pizza crust to approximately 16" x 12".
- Spread mustard over all of the pizza crust.
- Layer ham, cheese and broccoli all along one long edge of the crust. Starting with the ham edge, roll tightly. Finish with seam side down. Make small slits diagonally across the top of crust every 2-3".
- Bake 20 minutes at 350°F.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Start with good-quality ham, cheese, and bread. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your stromboli.
- Use a variety of cheeses. For a more flavorful stromboli, try using a combination of cheeses, such as mozzarella, cheddar, and parmesan.
- Don't overstuff the stromboli. If you overstuff it, the stromboli will be difficult to roll and seal, and it may burst open during baking.
- Brush the stromboli with olive oil before baking. This will help the stromboli brown nicely in the oven.
- Bake the stromboli until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown. Keep an eye on the stromboli while it's baking to make sure it doesn't overcook.
- Let the stromboli cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the stromboli set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Ham and cheese stromboli is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. It's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, or you can serve it as an appetizer at your next party. With its simple ingredients and delicious flavor, ham and cheese stromboli is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
