Spread HALF the meat filling lengthwise down the center of the dough within 1 inch of the end. Top meat filling with cheese filling. Spreed remaining meat filling on top, forming 3 layers. Place the cheese slices over the meat filling. Fold 13 inch ends over the filling about an inch. Pull the long sides up and over the filling. Be care and overlap the edges ONLY 1/4 of an inch. Pinch overlapped edges together. Brush with milk. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake at 350* about 35 minutes, or til golden brown.
