Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a rectangle.

Layer cooked ham, salami, and pepperoni evenly over the dough.

Spread mozzarella and ricotta cheese over the meats.

Add sliced black olives, diced green bell pepper, diced onion, minced garlic, and Italian herbs on top.

Roll the dough tightly into a log, sealing the edges well.

Place the rolled stromboli seam-side down on a baking sheet dusted with cornmeal.

Beat an egg and brush it over the top of the stromboli.

Make a few slits on top of the dough for steam to escape.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Serve with warm tomato sauce for dipping.
