Recipe: Easy Stromboli (using refrigerated pizza crust)

EASY STROMBOLI

1/2 lb. lean ground beef
1 (10-oz.) can Pillsbury Refrigerated Pizza Crust
1/4 cup pizza sauce
4 oz. (1 cup) shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup chopped green and/or red bell pepper, if desired
1/4 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray.

Brown ground beef in medium skillet over medium-high heat until thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently. Drain. Set aside.

Unroll dough; place on sprayed cookie sheet. Starting at center, press out dough with hands to form 12x8-inch rectangle.

Spread sauce over dough to within 2 inches of long sides and 1/2-inch of short sides. Place cooked ground beef lengthwise down center, forming 3-inch-wide strip and to within 1/2 inch of short sides. Top with cheese, bell pepper and Italian seasoning. Fold long sides of dough over filling; press edges to seal.

Bake at 400 degrees F. for 15 to 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
