Give me ALL the pizza!! I don’t care what’s on it (well…no anchovies or broccoli) and I don’t care what form it is in. I just LOVE pizza!

My Supreme Stromboli tastes just like a rolled-up slice of supreme pizza. I fill mine with pepperoni, sausage, green bell peppers, and lots of cheese and serve it alongside a bowl of warm marinara sauce.

What’s the difference between a calzone and Stromboli?

There are a few differences between these two delicious items. First of all, the shape is different for both. A calzone is like a stuffed, folded pizza. It was created in Italy so people could walk around the streets holding their pizza. Sounds like a genius idea to me! Whereas a stromboli is rolled up like a jelly roll so you get all of the ingredients in each bite. As far as the fillings go, a calzone usually contains ricotta cheese or a mix of cheeses including ricotta. A stromboli only has mozzarella – never ricotta. And for the sauce? Calzones are always dipped into sauce but you won’t find any sauce inside the dough. A stromboli can also be dipped into sauce but usually has a thin layer inside the roll as well.

Here’s how I make my Supreme Stromboli:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Cook the Italian sausage and put it to the side.
Cut the green bell peppers into strips.
Roll the dough out into a rectangle. Top the dough with some pizza sauce, then the shredded mozzarella, sausage, and green bell peppers. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
Begin rolling the stromboli up starting with the wide side of the dough (see pictures below).
Brush the top of the stromboli with an egg wash (1 egg mixed with a little water and stirred together). Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and some garlic powder. Make 4-5 cuts down the stromboli.
Place stromboli on baking sheet and bake for 25-35 minutes or until top of stromboli is browned and crispy.
