Stromboli

Are you ready for a meal that is super easy?!? This is the one for you. I got this recipe off this blog: http://life-should-be-delicious.blogspot.com. I love her cooking blog. I am adding some of my own additional instructions (things I would do differently). I made this for dinner and my kids loved it. Conner even asked if we could have it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. So this is definitely moving among our family favorites!

2-3 Frozen Loafs of Bread
2 Pounds Italian Sausage
1/2 Block of Romano Cheese
1/2 Block of Parmesan Cheese
1/2 Package Italian Seasoning
Tomato Based Pasta Sauce

Raise the frozen loafs of bread. Cook Italian sausage in pan. Shred cheese.

After bread has raise, flatten out. Put meat and shredded cheese on top of flattened bread. Roll up into a loaf and bake according to directions on bread package. Cut into slices. Dip the slices in tomato based pasta sauce (Ragu, Prego, etc.)

Here is some of the things I would suggest:
#1 -- There was definitely enough meat so I would suggest using 3 loaves.
#2 -- I combined all my bread into one big batch of dough and made one huge loaf. It made it a little difficult to "dunk". I would roll out each loaf of bread individually and fill it with sausage and cheese.
#3 -- There was no direction about how much cheese. I did 8 oz. of each.
#4 -- Nothing else was said about the Italian Seasoning. I made an egg wash (one egg beaten with a little bit of water). I brushed that over the top of the loaf with the meat and cheese inside. Then I shook some Italian spices on the top before putting it in the oven.
#5 -- I baked mine at 350 for about 20-25 minutes.
