The miracle whip was a little much. I think next time I'll use a little less and cook it a few minutes longer. Pretty easy to make, and the kids like it.

This is an easy and versatile recipe, you can put all kinds of different ingredients inside. I think it might be fun for the kids to let them each make their own individual pocket.

I made this 2 times and I really like this recipe. I enjoyed it. I think it works well with turkey, too. I used frozen french bread dough both made it for my playgroup twice now and kids and mom's both times.

Quick, easy, and very delicious! I substituted light mayo and lowfat cheese. Will definitely be making this again.

I think I would rather just have the ham and cheese. Keep it simple, I think that the mayo made the cheese take on a funny texture, it became kind of oily. I would leave the mayo out and if you really want to put mayo with it do it when you are going to eat it. This recipe was quick and easy, I will definitly make it again.

I'd add cooked onions and mushrooms

I added onions, hot mustard, and Italian dressing. I did not use the Miracle Whip. I also substitued refrigerated pizza crust instead of frozen dough. It tasted just like a hot sub! I think that I will put olives and other sandwich toppings in next time. Very easy to make, especially with kids!
