Here’s how to effortlessly create mouth-watering Garbage Bread:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.

2. Roll Out the Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle, about 12×16 inches in size.

3. Mix Fillings: In a large bowl, combine shredded mozzarella, mixed vegetables, cooked meats, ricotta cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.

4. Spread Fillings: Evenly spread the mixture over the dough rectangle, leaving a small border around the edges.

5. Roll It Up: Starting from one of the long edges, carefully roll the dough away from you into a tight log. Pinch the edges to seal them completely.

6. Cut Slits: Place the rolled dough seam side down on the prepared baking sheet. Using a sharp knife, slice several slits on the top of the dough to allow steam to escape.

7. Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk the egg and brush it over the top of the rolled dough for a shiny finish.

8. Bake: Place the bread in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

9. Cool Slightly: Once removed from the oven, let it cool for about 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the cheese to settle a bit.

10. Serve: Slice the Garbage Bread into portions and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
