Preparation
1
Stretch dough and cook bacon

  • Sprinkle both sides of dough with flour.
  • Stretch into a rough oval shape on a parchment-lined baking sheet. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 parchment-lined baking sheets.)
  • Let dough rest in a warm place for 8-10 min.
  • Add half the garlic spread to a small microwavable bowl. Microwave, until melted, 30 sec. Set aside.
  • Arrange bacon strips in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast bacon in the middle of the oven for 8-12 min, until crispy and cooked through.**

2
Prep

  • While dough rests, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces. 
  • Roughly chop half the spinach.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add remaining garlic spread, then half the peppers. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender crisp, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Remove the pan from heat. Add spinach to the pan. Stir, until spinach is wilted, 1 min. 

3
Assemble stromboli

  • Roughly chop bacon.
  • With floured hands, stretch dough again into a large rectangle shape, 9x13. (NOTE: The dough should now hold its shape.)
  • Spread 1/4 cup marinara mixture, leaving a 1-inch border empty around sides of dough.
  • Top sauce with pepper-spinach mixture, bacon and half the Parmesan. Tear over bocconcini. 
  • Using long side of pizza dough, roll dough carefully over filling. Arrange on baking sheet seam-side down. 
  • Pinch ends, then tuck under the roll. 

4
Bake stromboli

  • Brush top with remaining garlic spread, then using scissors, cut three slits into the tops.
  • Bake stromboli in the middle of the oven until golden-brown and crisp, 18-25 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, bake stombolis in the middle and top of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)

5
Make salad

  • Meanwhile, cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Add half the vinegar (save the rest for another recipe) and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. Set aside. 
  • Add remaining spinach, remaining peppers and tomatoes to bowl with dressing, then toss to combine.

6
Finish and serve

  • Once stomboli is baked through, let cool slightly on the baking sheet, 5 min. 
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining marinara in the microwave until warmed through, 30 sec. 
  • Using a serrated knife, slice stromboli into 8 equal pieces. 
  • Divide stromboli and salad between plates.
  • Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over salad.
  • Serve warmed marinara on the side for dipping.
