Cook vegetables and garlic in the oil with the salt and cumin until soft. Let cool slightly then mix in oregano. Roll out bread dough on a greased baking sheet into a rectangle about 15- by 11-inches. Spread the vegetables and cheese down the middle of the dough. Cut dough (using kitchen shears) on opposite sides in diagonal 1-inch strips. Fold in the ends then fold the strips toward the center alternating sides for a braided effect. Cover with a towel and let rise about 30 minutes. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Brush loaf with egg glaze. Bake until golden about 30 minutes.
