The flavor combinations for this stromboli are endless! Stromboli is a stuffed bread that's often made with a complicated dough. This dough is simple and makes this an easy-to-make recipe. It's very versatile. We used the filling included in this recipe, but use any combination of meat, cheese, and veggies you like.

How To Make garbage stromboli and dough

  • Mix the yeast and flour.
    1
    Prepare the dough by fluffing together the yeast and flour with a fork. Mix well.
  • Slowly add water.
    2
    Slowly introduce the warm water.
  • Add enough to form a ball.
    3
    Be careful not to make it soupy.
  • Knead the dough.
    4
    Knead for about 7-10 minutes until the dough becomes elastic in texture.
  • Add dough to a greased bowl to rise.
    5
    Put kneaded dough into a little greased bowl and let stand for 30 minutes.
  • Knead the dough a few times.
    6
    Begin to knead the dough a couple more turns.
  • Roll dough into a rectangle.
    7
    Roll out the dough and form it into a rectangle.
  • Lay down the cheese.
    8
    Lay down the cheese.
  • Add the toppings.
    9
    Then add the rest of the toppings.
  • Dust with garlic powder.
    10
    Take garlic powder and put a nice dusting over the toppings.
  • Start to roll the stromboli.
    11
    Now, to roll the stromboli, make sure it's tight but don't thin out the dough as you go otherwise it will tear while baking. You want to get as many rolls into it as you can, you want the layers.
  • Fold in the sides as you roll.
    12
    I find it better to tuck in the ends on the left and right as rolling.
  • Pinch the dough closed.
    13
    Seal the stromboli edges together by pinching them shut.
  • Place on parchment paper, seam side down, cover, and let rise.
    14
    Place it on parchment paper with the seam facing down and onto your baking pan. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Cut slices in the dough and bake.
    15
    Cut slices in the top of the stromboli and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Combine melted butter, Italian dressing, minced onion, and garlic salt.
    16
    Combine melted butter, Italian dressing, minced onion, and garlic salt.
  • Brush over the stromboli, close the oven, turn off the heat, and bake.
    17
    When the 30 minutes are over, spoon the melted butter mixture on the stromboli. Shut off the oven and put the stromboli in for another 10 minutes.
  • Let sit for a few minutes before serving.
    18
    Take out and enjoy with a side of marinara.
