Directions:
1
As best you can, coax each piece of bread into a diameter which is 1/2inch thick
2
Cut or grate the cheese of choice into manageable pieces and scatter them on half of the dough, leaving an inch of the outside edge blank
3
Top with ham and/or seasonings of choice and drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil on the filling
4
Fold unfilled half of the bread over to cover the filling and press all around the edges to seal
5
Sprinkle some drops of olive oil on dough and, with your fingers, spread the oil over the entire top surface of the dough
6
Set individual stuffed breads on a lightly oiled or nonstick baking pan
7
Let the breads rise, uncovered, for 45 minutes or until doubled
8
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and bake for about 20 minutes (if fillings ooze out a bit, don't worry)
9
Cool the breads on a wire rack until lukewarm or room temperature
10
Serve with a crisp green salad
