Ham and Cheese Pockets

This is a recipe that I made by combining a couple different recipes I use.

It is relatively quick, and we all love it! It makes 5 pockets, but can easily be doubled to make more if needed.

Filling:

1 1/2 - 2 Cups grated Cheese

1 Cup chopped deli ham

Dough:

Dissolve:

1/2 TBS yeast in

3/4 C. warm water

Add:

1TBS Sugar

1/4 tsp salt

1 1/2 cups flour

Mix all together and knead, adding more flour as needed until dough is not sticky. Divide dough into 5 sections and roll each out until about 1/4 inch thick and place on a sprayed cookie sheet. In the middle of each place about 1/2 cup of the filling mixture. Fold the dough over and press the edges with a fork to seal. Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic salt. Let raise for 10 minutes. Bake at 375* for 15-18 minutes, until lightly browned. Yummy!

Slice and serve.
