Description

This savory Meat Stomboli features a soft, braided dough filled with layers of pepperoni, Genoa salami, provolone, and mozzarella cheese. Topped with roasted sweet peppers and finished with a butter and poppy seed glaze, it offers a hearty, cheesy flavor perfect for sharing. The bread is baked until golden brown and hollow-sounding, making it an impressive centerpiece for any meal.
