Ingredients

  • 1 32 ounce package frozen bread dough, thawed
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground chuck
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 15 ounce can tomato sauce
  • 1 6 ounce can tomato paste
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 cups shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese blend
  • shredded Parmesan cheese

Preparation

Step 1

1. Allow dough to rise according to package directions.

2. Cook ground chuck, onion, bell pepper, and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat on stovetop until meat is browned and vegetables are tender, stirring until meat crumbles. Drain well and return to skillet.

3. Add tomato sauce, tomato paste, sugar, dry mustard, salt, and pepper to meat mixture. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring often.

4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

5. Roll out 1 piece of dough into a 10 x 15-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Spread 1 1/2 cups meat mixture on dough to within 1 inch of edges. Sprinkle with 1 cup shredded cheese blend. Roll up dough, starting at long side and pressing firmly to eliminate air pockets. Pinch ends to seal; turn under. Place loaf, seam-side down, on a greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, if desired. Repeat for remaining dough.

6. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until loaves are golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes. Slice with a serrated knife and serve warm
