Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, spray a little olive oil and add the ground turkey. Cook, breaking up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes.
Add the minced garlic, diced red bell pepper, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and the peppers are slightly softened.
Remove from heat and stir in the fresh spinach until just wilted. Let the mixture cool slightly.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the whole wheat pizza dough into a large rectangle, approximately 10x14 inches.
Spread the cooled turkey mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the mixture, and layer with the low-fat provolone slices.
Carefully roll the dough over the filling from one long side to the other, sealing the edges by pinching the dough together. Tuck the ends under to seal them. Place the stromboli seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the top with the egg white to promote a golden color when baked.
Using a sharp knife, make several small slits across the top of the stromboli to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Allow the stromboli to rest for a few minutes after removing from the oven, then slice and serve warm.
