Preparation

Step 1

1. In a large skillet, sauté onion and green pepper in butter until crisp-tender; set aside.

2. On two greased baking sheets, roll each loaf of dough into a 15-in. x 12-in. rectangle. Arrange the salami, ham and cheeses lengthwise over half of each rectangle to within 1/2 inch of edges.

3. Top with onion mixture; sprinkle with the Italian seasoning, garlic powder and pepper. Fold dough over filling; pinch edges to seal.

4. Brush with egg and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake at 400 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
