My kids love this! Served w/some cucumbers on the side & they think it's the greatest meal. Easy dish for busy moms.

When I made this I used mozzarella cheese instead and served it with spaghetti sauce for dipping. I've also made it with pepperoni, browned sausage and mozzarella. It was really good both times - great served as an appetizer at a party.

This recipe was simple and absolutely delicious! I used frozen yeast bread dough from the local grocery store and what a treat! I don't eat ham so I tried fresh deli sliced corned beef, and also pastrami and it was just declicious!!!! What a find!

The second time I made this I substituted roast beef, provolone & swiss cheese, cooked mushrooms, and mayo. We had a soup and sandwich get together with some friends. This goes great with French onion soup.

I couldn't believe how good this recipe was and how easy it was to make. My 4 year had fun helping me too. I substituted real mayo (not light) because I didn't have any Miracle Whip. I also used wholewheat pizza dough. If it wasn't brown, you wouldn't have known. I can't wait to make it again.

This is perfect to keep in the frig for a quick lunch or snack. My family loves it. I added pepperoni slices to my loaf for an extra "zing".
