Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound pizza dough store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup marinara sauce plus extra for dipping
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese feel free to add more
  • 1 cup sliced pepperoni adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning for added flavor
  • to taste olive oil for brushing and flavor
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle of about 12x15 inches.
  3. Spread a generous layer of marinara sauce over the dough, leaving an inch around the edges.
  4. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, followed by sliced pepperoni and Italian seasoning.
  5. Starting from one of the long ends, carefully roll the dough over the filling and tuck in the sides.
  6. Pinch the edges to seal well and cut a few slits on top for ventilation.
  7. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, brush with olive oil, and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. Let it sit for a few minutes before slicing.

Notes

Feel free to mix and match fillings; cooked sausage, veggies, or leftover grilled chicken work great. Serve with extra marinara or garlic butter for dipping. You can also freeze an unbaked stromboli for later.
