OMG!! My grandmother would make me the same melts when i was little. She used some English or Irish bread that i never got a recipe for that was so good.. It had holes in it with a solid bumpy crust. I don't know the name of the bead ether. I know it was a flat bread. But we would do it together and she would let me put anything i wanted in them. It THE BEST thing i ever ate as a kid.. Must try this!!
