    My husband has been after me to make a homemade Stromboli recipe for a long time, so when I joined the weekly #SundaySupper Movement recently and saw that the first theme I would be able to participate in was "Stuff, Roll, and Wrap", I knew immediately it was time to finally make one. I just couldn't bring myself to make homemade dough for it, I tend to make a mess with flour, and really didn't feel like cleaning it all up, so I decided to use  refrigerated crescent roll sheets as the dough instead.

    The purpose of #SundaySupper is bringing family back around the table. Right now we almost always have dinner together, but as our daughter gets older and starts participating in different activities, I know it will probably get harder to do. I do consider it important to have meals together, have a chance to talk, reconnect, and just spend time together, and that's why I decided to join this movement I had already heard so much about!

    I went with this recipe for stromboli, a simple Ham and Cheese Crescent Roll Stromboli, instead of a regular Italian Stromboli recipe, hoping my daughter would eat it. She did not. It appears we are at a VERY picky time period, she just didn't buy the idea it was like a grilled ham and cheese. Not that she would eat that, either, I was just grasping at straws.

    I started out by bringing the crescent roll dough to room temperature, which takes about an hour. Then I rolled the dough up into a ball and pressed it out with my fingers greased with just a few drops of olive oil, until it was about a 10 inch rectangle. Then I brushed a thin layer of marinara sauce over the dough, and then a layer of deli ham,

    and then a layer of sliced mozzarella cheese,

    followed by just a little Parmesan cheese.

    Then I carefully folded over the dough a quarter of the way, then completely over the rest of the filling, and pressed the ends of the dough together.

    After it was folded, I brush the top with a little egg white, and then sprinkled Italian seasoning lightly over the top, then baked it at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

    Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing, and served it with a side of marinara sauce for dipping. It immediately became one of my all time favorite stromboli recipes.

    • 8 slices deli ham (cooked ham)

    • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese

    • sprinkle of garlic powder
    • sprinkle of salt
    • 1 egg white
    • sprinkle Italian seasoning

    Instructions

    • Bring crescent dough to room temperature, 1 hour or longer (the warmer the dough is, the easier it is to work with).

    • On a large baking sheet press out the dough into about a 10-inch rectangle using your fingers lightly coated with olive oil. Brush the pressed out dough with a thin layer of marinara sauce, then layer on the ham and cheeses to about ½ inch from the edges. Sprinkle with garlic powder and salt.
    • Starting from a long end, fold the dough carefully a quarter of the way over then fold over the entire filling, pressing the dough ends together (you may have to stuff some of the filling back under). Brush lightly with egg white and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until hot and golden brown. Let it rest a few minutes before slicing. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.

      I made this tonight and it looked great. However, the inside dough was completely raw. I even baked it 5 minutes longer than suggested. Bummer.

        Hi Rachel, I'm sorry that happened. The only thing I can think of is that your oven might be running lower than the temperature you set. I haven't had any other complaints like this.

      Strombolis, calzones, and pizza pockets! I'm get a lesson in Italian wraps for this Sunday Supper!

      Ermagaaaawd Bernadette, I'll eat whatever your daughter didn't eat! This is my dream meal. I love meat 'n cheese stuffed into carbs! And one should always have short-cut ready made dough so that this could be whipped up at short notice. I'm going to go buy some right now!

      First things first. This is stunning and looks out of this world. Second, I don't attempt my own dough either. Now to attempt your stromboli.
