Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 loaf Bread Dough Store-bought or homemade
For the Filling
  • 1 cup Cheese (e.g., mozzarella, cheddar) Can substitute with vegan cheese
  • 2 cups Vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, onions, spinach) Use any fresh veggies on hand
  • 1 cup Cooked Meats (e.g., ham, sausage) Can omit for vegetarian version
  • 1 teaspoon Herbs and Spices (e.g., garlic powder, Italian seasoning) Experiment with fresh herbs

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Rolling Pin

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure that your Garbage Bread bakes evenly and develops that beautiful golden crust.
  2. Roll out the bread dough on a floured surface until it’s rectangular. Aim for about ¼ inch thick.
  3. Mix together the cheese, vegetables, and cooked meats in a bowl.
  4. Spread the filling evenly across the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border on all sides.
  5. Roll the dough tightly from one end to another; pinch the seams to seal.
  6. Place the rolled dough seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  8. Cool slightly before slicing and serving.
