Pepperoni Bread

==Description==
This simplified bread dish is made and packed with real pepproni, herbs, and cheese, and delivers a rich, meaty flavor. Italian seasoning sometimes and chili oil sometimes work for this, too.
==Ingredients==
*1 loaf frozen white bread dough
*½ tsp. vegetable shortening
*¾ tsp. fresh chopped parsley or parsley flakes
*¾ tsp. oregano
*4 tsp. chili flakes, optional
*4 oz. thinly sliced pepperoni
*2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese or (3 cups grated Colby or fresh Parmesan)
==Directions==
#Spread the shortening over the frozen dough.
#Place dough in a plastic bag and fasten. Let thaw and rise for 7-8 hours.
#Remove bread from the bag and spread dough on a 10x15-inch no-stick sheet. Sprinkle parsley, chili flakes (optional), and oregano over the dough.
#Cover dough entirely with the sliced pepperoni leaving ¼-inch on each side uncovered.
#Top with the Mozzarella. Roll up lengthwise.
#Pinch the seam together.
#Place seam-side down and prick the top with a kitchen knife.
#Bake 350° F for 20-25 minutes. Let it set for 5 minutes.
#Cut into ¾-inch slices after taking it out of the oven. Serve warm and plain or with any side dish, main dish, or appetizer.
