'Bacon Rolls' - Tomato and ham stuffed bread

These stuffed breads are based on the Italian Stromboli I remember from my childhood. Despite not being remotely like a bacon roll, Mini Monsters name for these has always stuck in this house.
These freeze very well and are perfect in a packed lunch box (I just take mine out of freezer the night before and leave packed lunch in the fridge overnight). 

250g Orgran Easy Bake Bread Mix
220mls cold water or milk substitute (less if using the spinach)
30mls Olive (or other) Oil
2 Balls of Frozen Chopped Spinach (defrosted) - optional
Extra Flour for kneading (I use Doves Farm 
Ham
Tomato Sauce
Basil Paste/Frozen Chopped Basil

Weigh bread mix into a bowl.

Put defrosted spinach into a measuring jug, add milk substitute or water to make up to 220mls, add oil. Mix.

Add to the flour mix.
Mix with a blunt knife unto the mixture comes together.
Kneed lightly with a little more flour if too sticky.
Divide dough into two and press out on a floured surface, using your hand, to form two rectangles.
Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce down the middle of each.
Top with basil and ham, before folding in the sides.
Carefully move to a greased tray and bake for 20mins at 200ÂșC.

Cut each into 3 pieces, cool and freeze until needed.
