Recipe - Ham And Cheese Pizza Loaf

1 pound Frozen bread dough, thawed
and risen
One half cup Chopped onion
1 tablespoon Butter
12 ounce Ham, cut in strips
8 ounce Ricotta cheese
6 ounce Cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley

In a small skillet, saute onion in butter until tender. In medium bowl,
combine all filling ingredients.

On lightly floured surface, roll dough into 15x10inch rectangle. Spread
filling in a 4inch strip lengthwise down center of dough. Fold long sides
of dough over filling; pinch edges together to seal. Place seam side down
on cookie sheet, tucking ends under. Cut slits on top.

Bake at 375°F for 2025 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes
before serving. Cut into slices.

NOTES : I also have made this with Italian sausage instead of ham and
mozzarella cheese instead of cheddar.
