Easy Mozzarella Cheesesteak Stromboli Recipe

We’re all mindful of how we spend money these days, especially with a hungry family to feed. Because of this, I find it helpful when grilling any variety of meats to prepare more than we need for our meal, so we can have a “round 2″ meal another day. Not only does it save money in the long run, but precious family time as well. Grilled sirloin can easily be repurposed into a completely different meal. Roll it up in pizza dough, then top with crisp cooked bell peppers and onions, and of course, gooey mozzarella cheese. While the stromboli bakes, toss together a salad filled with your choice of leafy greens and fresh crispy vegetables and you can have a perfect pairing on the table in around 30 minutes.

  1. I tried making a Cheese steak Stromboli not long ago. Before I saw your recipe. Could barely wrap around one time. Looked like a big burrito. Wasn’t bad, but will use your recipe next time.

    1. Hi Sherri, it’s a great question, but I think it would freeze better after baking. Bake it, cool completely, wrap then freeze. Reheat from frozen in a 350°F oven until heated through. You may need to lay foil on top to prevent over browning.

      1. Was wondering if there is a certain pan or something I could have done differently to keep my Stromboli from getting soggy on the bottom…any suggestions would be welcome…thank you

  2. 5 stars
    Made this for the second time tonight and it is great. I added mushrooms this time and it was yummy. I use my homemade pizza dough, and also made a pizza so dinner for tomorrow I swear also done. Thank you for the great recipe.

    1. Hi Sue, yes it is. The refrigerated pizza dough actually cooks up best as it’s designed to bake through easily. Should you choose to use homemade, make sure it’s rolled thin so it will bake in the middle. Thanks so much!

  3. Trying this now for Easter dinner since it is just my son and I. I used a little bit of Velveeta Queso Blanco on the bottom and Mozzerella on top. I wanted to use an actual Pizza crust but Publix was out of stock. They make them fresh. Results coming in 30 minutes!

  4. Hi Melissa, I do this for lunch today it was amazing ! My husband fell in love with this ! Thank you for sharing your wonderfull recipes! Greeting from France.

    1. Hi Martine, thanks so much for visiting from France! I’m delighted you and your husband enjoyed this, it’s my pleasure.

      1. Yes, the steak should be grilled to your taste. I typically over-cook for one meal and tuck enough steak away in the fridge to make this a day or so later. That way, since the steak is chilled it will gently reheat while the dough bakes and won’t be over cooked.

      2. This looks great Melissa! Will definitely try this out this weekend with my daughter.
