Ingredients:

1 cup warm water
1 package active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt

Combine the water, yeast, and unbleached white flour in a large bowl. Mix well. Add the whole-wheat flour, oil, and salt. With hands or a large wooden spoon, work the ingredients together until the dough holds its shape. You may need a bit less flour, so add the whole-wheat flour gradually. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead until it is smooth and elastic, 5 minutes. If the dough becomes sticky while you are kneading it, sprinkle a bit more all-purpose flour over it. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled 2-quart bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel, and let the dough rest until it has doubled in size, 1 hour. When the dough has risen, place it on a lightly floured surface, divide it into a dozen or parts, and roll them into balls. Cover them with a towel and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes. The dough is now ready to be shaped, stuffed and cooked.

Roll out little balls of dough. Fill the center of each one with your choice of the following:

• Two large broccoli tops and two small cheese cubes
• 1/3 cup mixture of chopped mushrooms, peppers, onions, and tomato sauce with garlic and basil
• 1/3 cup mixture of shredded cabbage, carrots, onions, soy sauce and water chestnuts
• 1/3 cup mixture of macaroni & cheese with tiny bits of chopped tomato
• 1/3 cup mixture of apples, pineapple chunks, chopped pecans and one small cheese cube
• 1/3 cup pinto beans, 1 tablespoon salsa, 1 small cube cheese

  Really, you can put anything in there you want to, depending upon what your family likes.

  After depositing your "surprise" in the center, pull all sides of the circular piece of dough up and scrunch together. It should look like a paper sack that's been scrunched together at the top. Then use string to tie around the top to hold it together while cooking.

  Cook in 325 oven for 30 to 45 minutes, depending on how brown you want the bread to be when you are done. Remove from oven, let cool, tie colorful ribbons around the top where the string was. The "surprise" is, your diners never know what they are getting inside until they bite into it.
