- 3 tablespoons mustard
- 6 slices cooked and crumbled bacon
- 2 dill pickle spears, chopped
- 8 slices American cheese
- 1 large egg, beaten

Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and diced onion over medium heat until the beef is no longer pink. Season with salt and pepper, and then drain any excess grease.
- Next, roll out the French bread dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle.
- Spread ketchup and mustard evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
- Evenly layer the cooked beef mixture on top of the ketchup and mustard. Sprinkle crumbled bacon and chopped pickles over the beef. Then, place American cheese slices on top in a single layer.
- Starting from one long end, roll up the dough tightly, sealing the edges. Place the rolled dough seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the dough with the beaten egg and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.
- Let the bread cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with Thousand Island dressing for dipping.
