Ingredients

Cooking spray

1/2 pound American cheese, thinly sliced

Directions

7. Layer the sliced American cheese over the beef mixture.
8. Roll up the dough tightly like a jelly roll, sealing the edges and pinching the ends.
9. Place the roll seam-side down on a baking sheet.
10. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown.
11. Let the stromboli rest for 5 minutes before slicing into 1-inch pieces.

Variations

• Add veggies: Include sautéed mushrooms, green bell peppers, or spinach for extra flavor and nutrition.
• Cheese swap: Substitute provolone, mozzarella, or a cheese blend for different textures.
• Spicy version: Add sliced jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce before rolling.
• Homemade dough: Use fresh homemade pizza dough for a more artisanal texture.
• Mini rolls: Make individual stromboli rolls for a party platter or lunchbox-friendly option.

Storage/Reheating

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat slices in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10–12 minutes for best results. Avoid the microwave if possible to preserve the crispy crust, but if you do, microwave in short bursts to avoid sogginess.

FAQs

Can I Use Fresh Beef Instead Of Frozen Steaks?

Yes, thinly slice fresh ribeye or sirloin and cook just as you would the frozen steaks.

How Do I Prevent The Dough From Getting Soggy?

Let the meat mixture cool slightly and avoid overfilling. Bake until golden for a crisp crust.
