Easy Stromboli

Leftovers always taste better when they have a fancy name.  This would be good with any combo of meat/cheese/veggies and dipping sauce. Looks impressive - bonus points!

1 can regular pizza dough (in the dairy case) - don't get the thin crust version
Assortment of meats and cheeses:  For example - salami, ham and provolone;  ham and Swiss cheese; mozarella, olives, tomatoes, spinach.
1 egg, beaten slightly
Dipping sauce - if desired (I used Ragu for the salami version)

Preheat oven to 400.  Grease cookie sheet.  Unroll dough onto slightly floured surface and push/pat until it is about 12x10 inches.  Arrange meat and cheese, staying 1 inch from the edges.  Starting at the long side, roll tightly.  Seal ends and press seam down to seal.  Brush with egg.  Cover loosely with foil that has been sprayed with Pam and bake 20 minutes.  Take off foil and bake about 15 more minutes, but watch the bottom so it doesn't burn.  Cool for about 5 minutes and cut into slices.  Leftovers are good cold!
