Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Italian Stromboli
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the refrigerated pizza crust on the baking sheet to a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick, leaving 1 inch on the edges.
  3. Spread a layer of pizza sauce over the crust, avoiding the edges.
  4. Layer the deli ham, mozzarella cheese, salami, pepperoni, and Italian seasoning on top of the sauce.
  5. Roll the crust tightly from one end to the other, pinching the seams well.
  6. Brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder and dried parsley. Make shallow slits in the top for steam.
  7. Bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown and cheese is bubbling.
  8. Let cool for 5 minutes, then slice and serve warm with pizza sauce for dipping.
