Excellent recipe as usual Kittencal! I made as directed but I also added mushrooms, green pepper, and black olives. We used warm pizza sauce to dip in as well. There were barely any leftovers!

My husband and son made this over the weekend and it was great. Loved the spice the egg wash added. We used pepperoni, salami and ham. Will definately be making this again in, at least the husband will.

Very nice stromboli! I almost missed this one because I was looking for a stromboli that used ground beef and the title fooled me. I halved the recipe and threw in some mushrooms and extra cheese - it is very versatile you could add all kinds of good stuff (peppers, olives etc) I liked the egg wash because it was also spiced up. My stromboli was done in about 25 minutes so watch it closely. I served it with warm pizzza sauce on the side. Five stars from all of us Kitten and thx!
