Meatball Stromboli takes pizza dough and rolls it up with good things like sliced meatballs, sauce, Parmesan and mozzarella cheese.
Meatball Stromboli
By Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime
Meatball Stromboli is my recipe of the day with Bread Bakers. We post once a month, baking up bread and bread related recipes on different topics.
November is all about stuffed breads, of which there are many. A few of our bakers are doing Italian ones this month, myself included. I decided on making a meatball stromboli, because I had a bag of meatballs I made and put away a couple of months ago and it’s really getting to be time to use them.
The making of this is easy enough–I used a packaged Wewalka pizza dough since you can unroll it and it is exactly the right shape and size you need.
From there, a good schmear of pizza sauce, some Parm, some mozzarella slices and the meatballs (sliced) round out the bill. It bakes up in half an hour and once it cools a little bit, you can slice and serve with some extra sauce on the side.
