Goodlee's Monster Stromboli

This is a pretty big recipe for a stromboli. You will have some yummy leftovers to munch on later! It feeds like 5-6 people.

You can make this recipe Stromoli or Calzone style, which is explained at the bottom of the post. If you're in a rush or a newblet, calzone style is easier.



Mats:
2-4 bags of pizza crust dough. Not the stuff from the freezer section. I'm talking about the ones you actually have to add water too (often near the hamburger helper).
**Use 1 bag of the pizza dough mix for top and 1 bag for the bottom. Want more? Use 2 for the top and 2 for the bottom.
1 jar of pizza or spaghetti sauce. to go inside and also for dipping- which ever you prefer.
1 green pepper
1 yellow pepper
1 onion
1/2 lb Ham
1 bag of Salami (Koto Salami from Oscar Mayer)
1 bag of Pepperoni
1/2 lb of cooked Sausage
Your choice of a cheese. (Some shredded Mozzarella is delicious in this!)

Step 1. You are going to want to make the dough before you do anything else. Follow the directions on the dough packages. If you have not made dough before you can try using premade dough from your grocery store.


Step 2. Chop everything up. I usually throw it onto to cookie sheet that I'm going to put into the oven. It's easier that way, and you won't have to worry about moving it once its filled up with chopped goodness.


Step 3. Flatten out the dough long ways. Once you get it to the size you like, layer the bottom with some of the pizza sauce. Make sure to leave a little bit of space to pinch the top with the bottom when the time comes. Add the rest of your fillers. I like to add the meats first, followed by the peppers and onions. Then add the cheese. Use the other packs of crust to cover it up. Pinch around the edges so that everything stays inside


Step 4. Bake at 350 for about 25-30 minutes. Check on it. If the top is golden brown like a pizza crust then your in business. =)


Step 5. Now this is the hard part! Do not eat your Stromboli right away. Resist and wait for 3 minutes (cooling time to make slicing easier).


Step 6. Slice it up, and use the sauce as a dip. =)


**Tip** The difference between a stromboli and a calzone is really in how you roll it. Stromboli usually have the dough rolled around the meats, veggies, cheeses--creating a layered appearance (Think of the rolled dessert cakes, or jelly rolls). Calzones are more like pouches of meats, veggies, and cheese.

WoW Ziti Dinner

Busy pwning noobz and your wife is going to be home soon? Here is an easy meal that you can make to impress her when she gets home. You will need about an hour, but no worries! That is mostly for cooking time, where you can be in WG or running around in Ulduar!



What you need:
Box of Ziti noodles.
Can of your favorite tomato sauce (26 oz)
15 oz (small container) of Ricotta cheese
Mozzarella cheese, shredded


Step 1. Grab a large pot and fill 3/4 of the way with water. Add a little salt, cover, and bring to a boil (this will take about 10 minutes to boil). Return to WoW and make sure that you have all your buffs, and start fight.

Win or lose on the boss, run into the kitchen and go to Step 2.

Step 2. Pour a box of ziti noodles into the pot and mostly cover (leave enough space to vent and prevent it from boiling over). Cook for approximately 8-10 minutes. About half way through stir the noodles to prevent clumps. Return to the game. After the full 8-10 minutes is up, test a noodle to make sure that they are soft.

Step 3. Drain the pot. Add some cold water to prevent the noodles from sticking to the bottom. Squish them, and drain them again.

Step 4. Add a small container (15 oz) of ricotta cheese. If you have the large container use about 1/2.

Step 5. Add half a can of tomato sauce.

Stir contents evenly.

Step 6. Using a large rectangular baking pan (9.5"x13" or so), pour noodles and spread evenly.

Step 7. Coat with a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 8. Sprinkle with a little garlic powder and a little parsley and oregano.

Step 9. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.

Enjoy! Your wife will love that you cooked more than mac-n-cheese, and you'll be happy that you mostly made your way through an instance!
