    Method: 

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Combine flour, salt, and yeast. Mix in warm milk and oil.

    Knead for 10 minutes and then divide dough into two equal pieces.

    On a floured surface, roll out to one 12 x 18-inch rectangle and spread with tomato paste.

    Combine onion, pineapple, ham, cheese, and parsley and sprinkle over the tomato paste.

    Roll rectangle lengthwise in jelly-roll style, cut into 16 slices each and transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 25 minutes.
