Meat & Cheese Stromboli

1 onion, sliced thin
1 green pepper, sliced thin
1 tablespoon butter
2 (16oz) loaves frozen bread dough, thawed
1/2 pound thinly sliced hard salami
1/2 pound thinly sliced deli ham
1/2 pound sliced mozarella cheese
1/2 pound sliced mild cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon garlice powder
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon poppy seeds
* Saute onion and pepper in butter until crisp tender. On two greased cookie sheets, roll dough into 15 X 12 rectangles. Arrange salami, ham and cheeses lengthwise over half of each rectangle to within 1/2 inch of edges. Top with onion and pepper mixture, sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder and pepper. Fold dough over filling. Pinch edges to seal. Brush with egg and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before cutting.

Kathy Farstad served this for lunch one day when I was visiting her at the lake. I decided it's the perfect thing to go along with the Split Pea soup I'm making Thursday night for Marty and Jane. I hope they think so too.

This sounds pretty good. We may try it (if my wife's stomach is up to the adventure). Gravity is catching up with us. I once bragged I had a stomach like a goat. Well, I ended up with a stomach that looks like a goat, but I can't eat quite as aggressively anymore. My little bride has never had a strong stomach, and now takes pills for lactose, grease, gas, acid...you get the picture.

Maybe she can take a few pills and we'll both enjoy your recipe.

Thanks for sharing.
