Dissolve sugar and sprinkle yeast on top of lukewarm water..let sit for 5 minutes. Pour into bread maker. Add flour, oil, salt, and herbs. When dough cycle is done, turn out on floured board and flatten out into a rectangle.

Chop up sun dried tomatoes, and spread over the dough, using some of the oil, or extra olive oil, sprinkle on top of this the cheese and chopped fresh garlic.

Roll up sealing ends and put on an oiled baking sheet, sprinkled with cornmeal. Let rise about ½ hour.

I have used various toppings onions, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, etc..and various herbs..it all works..

It is delicious served hot, dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar as an appetizer or serve with a pasta dish
