Feeding teenagers is what this recipe is perfect for! It freezes well, so it's handy to quickly reheat in the microwave.—Erma Yoder, Millersburg, Indiana

Ingredients

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1-1/3 cups warm water (110° to 115°)
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 to 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • FILLING:
  • 1-1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons prepared mustard
  • 12 slices process American cheese
  • 12 slices hard salami
  • 1/2 pound thinly sliced deli ham
  • 4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Canola oil
  • Oregano to taste

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add oil, salt and 2 cups flour; beat until smooth. Stir in enough flour to form a soft dough.
  2. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until not longer pink; drain and set aside.
  3. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Roll each portion into a 15x12-in. rectangle. Spread mustard lengthwise down half of each rectangle; layer with American cheese, salami, beef, ham and mozzarella. Fold plain half of dough over filling and seal ends well. Brush with oil; sprinkle with oregano.
  4. Bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly; cut into 1-in. slices.
