Turkey Stomboli

One of my husband's favorite things to eat is a stromboli.  He remembers this place near his dorm from college that had the best strombolis.  I've tried to make healthier choices in our diet.  So I decided to make a white meat turkey stromboli on a wheat bun.  I used turkey pepperonis and low fat mozzarella cheese.  They were really good and so much healthier.

Turkey Stromboli

1 lb. ground white turkey meat

wheat hoagie buns

onion powder

garlic powder

seasoned salt

pepper

italian seasoning

pizza or spaghetti sauce

onion (diced)

mozzarella cheese slices

pizza toppings of your choice

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cook turkey in skillet with seasonings and diced onion until cooked through.  Add sauce and heat until bubbly.  Cut hoagies in half lengthwise to form sandwich top and bottom.  Top inside of buns both top and bottom slices with sauced meat and layer with pizza toppings.  Place cheese slices on top.  Bake on cookie sheet at 400 degrees for 11-15 minutes until cheese is melted and slightly darkened.  Put buns together like a sandwich.  Makes 2-3 strombolis depending on amount of meat on buns. 

*Variation to recipe: Place meat on bottom half of bun only and turn top half into garlic bread with butter and garlic salt.  Bake 11-15 minutes at 400 degrees.  Makes 4-6 sandwiches.
