"I've adapted this recipe from a Taste of Home recipe," says Sherri Probasco of Grand Island. "It is fast, requires few ingredients, is easy and tastes great."

Quick and Easy Stromboli

1 package refrigerated pizza dough

2 tablespoons prepared mustard or spicy brown mustard

1/2 to 1 pound sliced deli ham or turkey

1/2 to 1 pound provolone or Swiss cheese

1 egg, beaten

1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Unroll pizza dough on a square baking stone or baking sheet. Roll into a 13-by-10 inch rectangle. Spread mustard evenly on dough. Layer deli meats and cheeses on dough, overlapping the slices, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

Fold a third of the dough toward the center from long edge of rectangle. Fold second side toward center enclosing filling. Pinch long edge to seal. Pinch ends together and tuck under dough. Place on baking sheet (grease pan if not using a stone).

Cut shallow crosswise slits on top of dough, spacing 3 inches apart. Brush stromboli lightly with beaten egg; sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly and serve warm.
