butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

Olive oil is healthier and adds flavor.

cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: smoked sausage

Turkey bacon reduces fat content.

Mix 1 kilogram of flour with water to create a dough, kneading for about 15 minutes until soft and pliable.

Let the dough rest and rise until it doubles in size.

Roll out the dough into flat rounds.

Spread butter on one side of each round.

Sprinkle garlic, herbs, and cheese evenly over the unbuttered side.

Add cooked bacon, onion, and pepper on top of the cheese.

Fold the dough over to create a pocket, sealing the edges.

Place the pockets on the grill, buttered side down.

Grill until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

Flip and grill the other side until cooked through, about 3-4 minutes more.
