Pepperoni Stromboli Recipe

original recipe: http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Pepperoni-Stromboli-2

Ingredients:

• 2 loaves (1 pound each) frozen bread dough, thawed
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon each garlic powder, salt and pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 pound ground beef, cooked and drained
• 1 package (3-1/2 ounces) sliced pepperoni
• 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 small onion, chopped

Instructions:

Place each loaf of bread dough in a greased large bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Punch down. Roll each loaf into a 15-in. x 12-in. rectangle.

In a small bowl, combine the eggs, oil and seasonings. Brush over dough to within 1/2 in. of edges; set remaining egg mixture aside. Layer beef, pepperoni, cheeses and onion on dough to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up, jelly-roll style, beginning with a long side. Seal the edges well.

Place seam side down on greased baking sheets. Brush with remaining egg mixture. Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before cutting. Yield: about 16 servings.
