Super Bowl Sunday

What is more traditional on Super Bowl Sunday than pizza?  With everyone ordering from the pizza chains, I did not want to have to wait for mine to be delivered.  So tonight it was going to be “home-made” Stromboli.  With making our own at home everyone can get what they want on/in it.  The recipe called for premade refrigerated dough, which was fine with me, as it made life much simpler. However, it almost was not to be.
 
When we opened the trunk on the X-Terra to take the groceries out yesterday, both packs of dough came rolling out and broke open on the ground.  I thought no big deal at the time as I put them in a Zip-lock for the night.  I thought I could just roll the dough out today.  Well when I tried to roll out the dough tonight, it would not roll out like I wanted. SO I had to make a quick run to Wal-Mart for a few more rolls. I made sure not to drop this batch once home.
 
For me if was roasted green chilies, pineapple, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese and sauce.  The Mrs. went with just pineapple, cheese and sauce. They ended up being more like calzones than Stromboli, due to the fact that I did not get a good roll up on them.  It was easier just to pull the dough over the toppings.  Either way, they were darn good. Brushed the tops with egg whites and water before baking for a nice brown crust.
 
Unfortunately the game was not as good as tonight’s dinner.  The Ravens won!  I am still mad about the whole Cleveland Brown’s issue from way to long ago.  I can’t ever root for the miserable Ravens.
 
Until next time – COOK ON!
