Delicious and Quick Dinner Idea (French Stromboli)

Here's a quick and tasty idea for a hot and delicious dinner!
Take one can of Pillsbury Crusty French Loaf (or two if you want leftovers)

Pop open the can and roll the dough out in a big rectangle on a cookie sheet. Layer whatever ingredients you want to melt together inside the bread. Make sure you lay them in a 'stripe' down the middle of the dough, lengthwise. This tastes good with mozzarella, spinach, mushrooms, any type of meat or all of the above! Don't foget to add spices (like garlic or basil). Basically you choose a theme and dress the dough accordingly.

Pull edges of dough together above the 'stuffing' and pinch closed. Use water if you need edges to be stickier. Flip the entire thing over so that the seam is not showing and is closest to the pan.

Bake according to dough instructions on can, usually about 20 mins or so. Get ready for your house to start smelling really really good after about 10 minutes.

It takes about 10 mins to throw it all together, another 20 or so to bake it and then about 5 minutes to let it sit before you cut it. That's 35 minutes from start to finish. It will taste homemade and makes great leftovers for a couple days, depending on what you put in it.

I'd love to hear how yours turns out. Take a picture and let me know how it goes!

  1. this is a great idea! I sometimes use that canned pizza dough stuff and put ham & cheese in it, but I think this kind of dough might be better!
