Why you'll love this recipe
Frozen pizza dough is a miracle. I love it so much. I typically keep it around for "leftover night" dinner. I roll it out, add some sauce, pesto or something else, top it with chopped up whatever-is-in-the-fridge and cover it with cheese. It's one of my freezer staples.
I decided to mix it up and make stromboli. It's like pizza-stuffed bread! Your entire dinner is wrapped up in dough and baked to perfection. I loaded it with veggies for a meatless meal and used a seasoned cream cheese instead of sauce.
Prepping all the veggies can take some time, so I streamlined the process and bought pre-sliced mushrooms, already shredded cheese and canned artichokes so I didn't have to thaw them. My favorite, frozen pizza dough, makes dinner come together in only a few minutes. Leave it in the oven for a while and serve. Everyone is happy.
The recipe makes two stromboli, so half it if you aren't serving a crowd. It disappears pretty fast though, so you may want the full recipe. Alfredo Veggie Stromboli for the win!
I love the tangy flavor from the sun-dried tomatoes and the herby cream cheese. The cream cheese mixed with melty shredded cheese makes the most perfect alfredo sauce once baked together in the oven.
I used canned artichokes because they are processed with water. The jarred type is marinated in oil and seasoning and I find them too salty and overpowering.

📖 Full Recipe
Alfredo Veggie Stromboli
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 oz sliced mushrooms
- 1 cup artichoke hearts (canned or frozen - thawed)
- 6 sun-dried tomatoes (finely chopped)
- 7 oz (1¾ cups) low-sodium shredded mozzarella
- 1 package frozen pizza dough (2-lb loaf, thawed)
- Flour (for work surface)
- ½ cup (5 oz) Philadelphia Cream Cheese
- 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until golden, 6 to 8 minutes; remove from heat. Pat artichoke hearts dry with paper towels and coarsely chop. Combine mushrooms, artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes, and shredded cheese; set aside.
- Heat oven to 400°F with rack in the upper third. Working with half the dough at a time, roll into an 8-by-12-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Mix together the cream cheese and Italian seasoning. Spread half the cream cheese mixture on dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle with half the mushroom mixture.
- Fold dough over filling and pinch to seal the seam and ends. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, seam side down. Repeat with remaining dough and ingredients. Cut a few deep vents in the top of each roll and bake for 30 min; tent loosely with foil, then bake until cooked through, 10 min more.
