These were a huge hit at my house! DH wants me to make them again without the sauce and to see how that would turn out. I also think it would be good with regular pizza sauce as well. I did find the dough messy/sticky while trying to roll up the ham/cheese/sauce. Maybe I didn't use enough flour on my countertop. Either way - they turned out and there were only a few left. We served these with recipe #379325 for a very tasty winter meal. Thanks for sharing! Made for the January 2010 Aussie/NZ recipe swap.

We have just enjoyed this for lunch with thumbs up all round. I used about 1 3/4 cups of grated cheese and 175 grams of shaved adelphi ham. Personally I felt the tomato flavour was a bit strong but I was the only one. I think the biggest challenge was getting the dough to roll out to a square swear it wanted to go round. Thank you Tisme.
