--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  16            ounces  hot roll mix
     1/3           cup  dried tomatoes
  6             ounces  cream cheese -- *see note softened
     1/3           cup  pitted ripe olives -- finely chopped
     1/4           cup  green onion
  1                     egg yolk -- slightly beaten
  1           teaspoon  cracked black pepper
     1/2      teaspoon  dried oregano -- or thyme, crushed
  1                     egg -- slightly beaten
  1         tablespoon  water
Prepare the hot roll mix according to package directions. After kneading, divide 
the dough into two portions; cover and let rest 5 minutes. Grease a large baking 
sheet; set aside.
For Filling, drain tomatoes, reserving oil. Chop the tomatoes. Combine tomatoes, 
cream cheese, olives, green onions, egg yolk, pepper, and, if desired, oregano or
thyme in a mixing bowl. 
Stir in about 1 tablespoon reserved tomato oil, if necessary, to make a filling that 
is easy to spread. 
Turn dough portions out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll each portion to an 
14 x 11-inch rectangle. Spread half of the filling atop each rectangle to within 1/2 inch 
of edges (filling amount will seem generous). Roll up dough tightly from long sides. 
Seal seams. 
Place loaves on the prepared baking sheet with seams down. Cover and let dough rise 
till nearly double(about 30 to 40 minutes).
Make three or four diagonal cuts about 1/4 inch deep in loaf tops, using a sharp 
knife. 
Combine the egg and water; brush onto loaves. Bake in a 375º F oven about 25 minutes 
or till golden. Carefully remove loaves from baking sheet and cool on wire racks.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Slice with a serrated knife.
