Now, every so often, I love to switch up our mealtime with something fun and a tad different from our usual fare, and the Garbage Bread recipe fits the bill perfectly. The idea here is simple yet satisfying; it’s a playful take on the stromboli or a calzone, but way less fussy. Originating from the New York area, it’s like a stuffed bread filled with anything you’d toss on a pizza but rolled up in one glorious, easy-to-eat package. Perfect for game nights, family gatherings, or when you’ve got a bit more of this and that in the fridge – it’s versatile and makes the best of leftovers. And let’s be honest, who doesn’t love the idea of warm, cheesy goodness with their favorite fillings enclosed in a golden crust?
Pair your Garbage Bread with a crisp green salad tossed with a light vinaigrette or a steaming bowl of your favorite soup to keep things cozy. For the little ones, carrot and celery sticks with a cool ranch dip might just be the ticket. Don’t forget the napkins because this is hands-on eating at its finest
