Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1lb pizza dough
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ lb baby Bella mushrooms cut into slices
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
6-9 slices of provolone or mozzarella cheese
½ cup of frozen spinach or a large bunch of fresh spinach leaves
¼ cup of black olives
1 cup shredded mozzarella
Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1tbs water)
Sesame seeds
fresh chopped basil
1 cup marinara sauce for dipping or drizzling

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375F.
Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, the onion powder, the garlic powder, the smoked paprika, and salt and pepper to taste. Sauté until the mushrooms are cooked through.
Dust your kitchen counter with some flour, roll the pizza dough, and flatten it out until you have a large rectangle.
Layer starting with the provolone, leaving about a 1½ inch border around the dough. Then layer the spinach, the sauteed mushrooms, and the black olives. Top with the shredded mozzarella.
Roll the pizza dough like a cinnamon roll. When you finish rolling it, seal the seam against your roll by pinching it with your fingers.
Place a piece of parchment on a sheet pan. Transfer your stromboli to the sheet pan with the seam side down.
Using a knife, cut some slits on the top of your stromboli and brush with egg wash.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let stand for a couple of minutes before slicing.
Top with fresh basil and sesame seeds, and serve with a marinara sauce for dipping or drizzling.
