My Mexican Stromboli is a fusion of some of my favorite Mexican flavors and my favorite pizza dough. It’s seasoned beef, black beans, onions, mushrooms, olives, sweet peppers…two types of cheese wrapped in dough and baked. It’s seriously delicious, and it’s one of my favorite ways to get my Mexican...

How to make Mexican Stromboli
- Step 1
Make the dough and keep half of it aside; cover the remaining and refrigerate.
- Step 2
Melt butter over medium heat in a medium-sized pan; add onion and mushrooms.
- Step 3
Add Worcestershire sauce, toss to coat, and sauté over medium-low heat until caramelized. Remove onions and mushrooms from the pan, set aside, and return the pan to the stove.
- Step 4
Add ground beef to the pan over medium heat, brown and drain the fat; return to the pan.
- Step 5
Sprinkle with taco seasoning and water, toss to coat, and simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until thickened.
- Step 6
Spread the dough into two rectangle shapes on a floured surface.
- Step 7
Start layering with Provolone and Monterey Jack cheeses, the beef mixture, beans, olives, onions, and peppers.
- Step 8
Cut slashes on each side to make strands. Starting on one side, fold strands over one at a time, alternating.
- Step 9
Brush with egg white and sprinkle with sea salt.
- Step 10
Bake at 375°F for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Tips & Tricks
Store-bought pizza dough from the deli or canned pizza dough will work if you need to save time.
Let the dough rise overnight for better pliability.
Caramelizing the onions and mushrooms adds depth of flavor to the filling.
Ensure the strands are sealed properly to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
Sprinkle coarse sea salt on top for added texture and flavor.
