The Club Stromboli

1 can or package of refrigerated pizza dough

2 tbs Dijon, spicy or honey mustard

Quarter lb thinly sliced deli turkey

Quarter lb precooked bacon

2 cups shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Unroll pizza dough onto greased baking pan; spread dough into about a 12 in square.

You can ask your wife for a little help. She won’t mind but don’t let her take over. It’s your night to shine!

Spread the mustard over the dough, leaving a half inch border bare. Layer the ham, turkey and bacon down the center 6 inches of dough, leaving a 3 inch border on either side and a half inch border at the top and bottom. Top the meat with the shredded cheese. Fold the sides of the dough over the filling, pinching the center seam and each end to seal the Stromboli. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. You can buy a bag of mixed greens or spring mix prepared salad, add a few carrots and tomatoes and your favorite dressing and you have a meal.

For dessert make these super easy Cheesecake brownies or be caught out buying some like Mr. Brown! You know who you are.
