Spinach and Queso Fresco Stromboli with Cannabis

If you’re looking for a non-traditional Italian meal then let’s make Spinach and Queso Fresco Stromboli with Cannabis!

Made with almond flour, this new take on a time-old Italian meal is going to knock your socks off!

With only 14 minutes in the oven, you’re going to have a gorgeous, fancy-looking and absolutely amazing-tasting dinner (or lunch) that everyone is going to love.

What I love about this Stromboli is that it feeds many – so you can host a dinner party with little to no effort and still please everyone.

What is Queso Fresco?

Not only is it fun to say out loud, but it’s also simple. It means fresh cheese. Fancy!

In today’s recipe, you’re going to be using freshly shredded mozzarella.

And it wouldn’t be a cannabis dish if it didn’t have an infusion in it, right?

We’re also going to load up the stromboli with cannabis butter inside and out.
