Ideal for weeknight dinners or casual gatherings, this recipe offers the perfect mix of health-conscious choices and mouthwatering satisfaction.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour a clean countertop or surface, then roll out the whole wheat pizza dough into a large rectangle, roughly 10x14 inches.
Sprinkle the Italian seasoning and garlic powder evenly over the dough to add extra flavor.
Layer the turkey breast slices evenly across the surface of the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the reduced-fat mozzarella cheese over the turkey slices, followed by the fresh spinach leaves and red bell pepper slices.
Carefully roll the dough from one long side to the other, creating a tight log. Pinch the edges to seal the seam and tuck the ends underneath the roll to secure it.
Transfer the Stromboli to the prepared baking sheet, seam side down. Brush the top lightly with the beaten egg white to help it brown in the oven.
Using a sharp knife, make 3–4 small slits on the top of the Stromboli to allow steam to escape while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Slice into portions and serve warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping, if desired.
