mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: cheddar cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces calories while maintaining stretchiness.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast is a dairy-free alternative with a cheesy flavor.

Prepare the spice blend by combining the za'atar and olive oil in a bowl and mixing well.

Slice the sourdough loaf across, leaving 1/2-inch at the bottom, then slice the other way to create a crisscrossing grid pattern.

Brush the za'atar oil mixture into the bread cracks and on top.

Stuff each pocket with cheese.

Place the bread in an oven-safe dish with a cover or wrap tightly in foil.

Bake at 375ºF/190ºC for 25 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
