    List of Ingredients




    Makes 4-5 portions

    2 tsp sugar
    3 tsp active dry yeast
    2-1/2 cup flour
    1/4 cup olive oil
    pinch of salt
    1 cup warm water

    1 can artichoke hearts, drained
    1 pound fresh spinach, washed
    2 roasted chicken breasts, about 12 ozs. in total, sliced
    1-1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
    1-1/2 cup herbed tomato sauce
    2-1/2 cup fresh tomato bruschetta (home made or purchased)

    For dough, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Add oil. Combine
    flour and salt on table. Make a well in the center.

    Slowly add wet to dry ingredients, mixing from the inside out. Work
    into a soft, smooth dough. Portion into 4-5 balls and let rise,
    covered for 1/2 hour. This freezes well. Do not let rise before
    freezing.

    To assemble strombolis, roll out each portion of dough into a 9
    inch circle. Spread each with tomato sauce, leaving a 1 inch border.
    Along the center arrange the cheese, spinach, chicken and artichoke
    hearts.

    Fold the sides in over the filling and roll up, burrito-style.

    Seal the seams with water and press together. Cut the log into 3
    even pieces and place each upright on an oiled baking pan. Repeat
    with other Strombolis.

    Bake at 375 to 400 deg F for 25 minutes, until dough is crispy and
    golden and cheese is melted. Place three rounds on each plate and
    top with bruschetta. Serve with salad greens.

    NOTE: To make bruschetta, combine chopped ripe tomatoes, minced
    onion, garlic, chopped fresh basil and parsley, a touch of balsamic
    vinegar and a splash of good olive oil. Let sit at room temperature
    for 20 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
