Stuffed Stromboli
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups warm (not hot) water
1 Tablespoon (or one packet) of yeast
1/3 cup of sugar
1/4 cup of oil
1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
Stromboli filling options:

Any combination that sounds good to you
Directions:
-
Put in a large bowl and let set for 5-10 minutes so the yeast gets started.
-
Then add about 5 1/2 cups of flour
-
Stir with a spoon and see if it is still too wet; if it is, add 1/2 cup more flour. Then use your hands to mix the dough. If it is still sticky add 1/4 cup of flour till you have slightly "drier" dough. Knead for a couple of minutes and then form into a ball. Pour a tablespoon of oil into the bowl, and use the dough to oil the sides of the bowl.
-
Then cover with a towel and put in a warm non drafty spot, and let raise for 1 1/2 hours.
-
Divide dough in two and spread out on a rectangular pizza pan.
-
Spread out your ingredients of choice.
-
Now you are ready to roll the dough. Roll the dough lengthwise tucking in the ingredients. When it's all rolled up, seal the edges.
-
Bake at 400 degrees for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown, and sounds hollow if you tap on it with your fingernail.
