(Clean out your Fridge) Taco Stromboli

Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

I have a few recipes that are excellent for using up leftovers.  This is a great one I came up with just for that purpose…

This recipe is very flexible, you can pretty much use whatever you have leftover in your fridge.  Beans (any kind, even re-fried), rice, onions, peppers, corn, chicken, beef or pork.  Salsa, cream cheese, plain yogurt, shredded cheese.  The list goes on…

These are the ingredients I used in this Stromboli:

Thin and crispy refrigerated pizza dough
Leftover ground beef
Black beans
Corn
Shredded cheese
Salsa
Plain Greek yogurt
Taco Seasoning

Here is how I made the Taco Stromboli (almost the exact same way I made my Ham and Cheese and Leftover Meatloaf Stromboli.)

Throw all your ingredients in a bowl and mix it up!

Don’t forget the seasonings:

Lay out the pizza dough and spread your filling mixture out evenly.  Top the filling with a bit more cheese.

Roll it up and place it on a greased cookie sheet, seam side down.  Using a serrated knife, cut a few slits in the top to reduce pressure when cooking.  Cook in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes.  After 20 minutes, you may want to cover it with foil to prevent further browning then cook for another 5 to 15 minutes.

Before:
After!
Slice, serve and enjoy.  You can find more quick and easy family friendly recipes here

I will be linking up to some of the linky parties listed here.

    I've seen taco in many different ways, but can't remember seeing it as Stromboli. It looks and sounds very good. Just a unique new way for an old recipe. I also love Greek yogurt! Thanks for sharing you creative inspiration at Sunday's Best Par.tay!

  7. This sounds delicious! I love using Greek yogurt in dishes like this.

    Love this! Looks super yummy. My mother-in-law use to call leftovers when my hubby was a kid — must goes. Everything in the fridge went in to making some sort of meal to finish them off.
