Add 1-2 tbs of the cheese filling in the middle of the circle and wrap with the rest of the dough circle. Press with your fingers or using the roller until the circle is about 1/4-inch thick.
- Preheat a large non-stick pan. Cook the flatbreads on both sides until the dough is brown but still soft and the filling is melted.
- Remove from the heat and let them cool on a cool rack.
