    List of Ingredients




    Ham and Cheese Picnic Bread

    1 (.25 ou
    nce) package active dry yeast
    1 cup warm water (110 degrees F)
    3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 egg
    1 tablespoon butter
    1 tablespoon white sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 cup chopped ham
    1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
    1 (4 ounce) jar diced pimento peppers, drained
    1/2 cup black olives, drained and chopped

    Recipe






    1 In a small mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.

    2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the flour, egg, butter, sugar and salt; mix well. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 8 minutes.

    3 Lightly oil a large mixing, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.

    4 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Combine the ham, cheese, pimento and olive in a medium mixing bowl; set aside.

    5 Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll or pat the dough into a 10x14 inch rectangle. Make parallel cuts 3/4 inch wide and 2 inches long on the two long edges of the rectangle. Evenly spread the filling mixture over the center of the rectangle.

    6 Fold the short ends of the rectangle over the filling. Starting from one of these ends; alternately stretch strips from the two sides across the filling so that the strips overlap diagonally. Transfer the loaf to a lightly greased baking sheet, cover with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.

    7 Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.

    Makes 1 loaf
