Stromboli

What words come to your mind when you think of making Stromboli?

For me:
  • difficult
  • complicated
  • takes too long

That'd be why my Hubby made it. He's really good with recipes that take a  couple of hours and involve several steps. 

My Mom recently found a cookbook called Frame by Frame which is an excellent resource to keep in your kitchen! Why so? It provides pictures for every single step of any recipe ---especially for a complicated one like Stromboli for me. 

The pictures and instructions are straight to the point so you don't have to spend time double guessing yourself as to whether you are doing the right thing or not. (Ever done that?!?!)

I do have to tell you that Stromboli takes a few hours to make, but with an iced-Coke around and some fun people hanging out with you as you make this dish, time will pass by very quickly....AND they'll be quite happy with this dish!   

Ingredients:

My Hubby made Stromboli filled with spinach, ham, cheese, and roasted red peppers.

It can be made with a variety of different ingredients depending on what you like.

Take a look and see how the instructions from the book compare to what the actual Stromboli looked in the end!
