Turkey Stromboli

I tried a new recipe and (just for you Lisa) it has fewer ingredients than the last few.  You are welcome! =)
It was tasty and had lots of healthy veggies in it.  For real meal lovers though, you might need to up the turkey in it.  For Sam and I it was just right. =)
It was super easy and quick!  Perfect for some tired snowboarders!




  • 1/2 sweet onion
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic
  • 1/2 lbs lean ground turkey (8oz)
  • 1 bell pepper chopped
  • 1 small-medium zucchini chopped
  • kosher salt and pepper
  • 1 8oz can tomato sauce
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 1/4 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 package of Whole Wheat Pizza dough
  • 4 oz fancy shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. Brown with ground turkey with the onion and garlic. Add the chopped pepper and zucchini. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes while you prepare to work with the dough.
Sprinkle you counter or cutting board with a bit of whole wheat flour. Separate the dough into 4 equal parts.
Add the tomato sauce, basil and oregano to the skillet. Stir and lower heat to medium-low. Let it simmer while you prepare the dough again.
Roll out the dough into rectangles. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Lay one of the rectangles on the cookie sheet. Scoop about 2 ladlefuls of the turkey mixture in the middle. Top with 1 oz of cheese and fold over to create a long skinny stromboli. Place a few slits on the top.
Note: They will be hard to move so making them on the sheet with be a big help.
Once you make all four. Place in the oven for 15 minutes. Once finished let sit for 5 minutes before cutting.
