Cheese Please

Cheese is an amazing thing. I have never met someone who hates cheese. Ever. And if I did, I might not be able to be their friend. There is something about that ooey, gooey, stringy stuff that makes my mouth water.

This morning I was daydreaming about cheese filled pretzels and, although I have the ingredients to make them, I didn't feel like putting that much effort into cooking.  So I grabbed a few items from the store after dropping the kids off at school and rushed home to make something you're going to want to make tonight!

 
 
It's Really easy! Just unroll and pile on the ingredients.
 
Roll Up the Bread

 
 
Bake the loaf.
 
 
Enjoy!
 

Cheese Bomb Bread

Ingredients:
1 pkg refrigerated French bread dough
Italian seasoning
onion powder
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/3 cup fresh grated parmesan (not the stuff that sits on the shelf at the store...blech!)
2 handfuls shredded cheddar or Colby


Directions:
Preheat oven according to bread dough package. Remove dough from package. Find the seam on the dough and unroll carefully.
Sprinkle the whole loaf with Italian seasoning and onion powder. At one end of dough, spread the garlic along the edge and sprinkle the parmesan cheese over garlic. Over the remaining dough spread yellow cheese (whichever you picked), but do not cover the last 2-3 inches of the dough.
Roll the dough back up, starting at the end you placed the garlic. Turn dough over so the seam in down.
Bake according to package.

Savory Breakfast Bread-Easy Like Sunday Morning, On Saturday!

Ahh...Saturday Morning. The one day of the week we don't have anywhere to be (most of the time). I love sleeping in until whenever I like 6:30AM.
This morning I crept around the kitchen with a box of baking mix in hand trying to think up a delicious alternative to our usual Eggs with cheese and Sausage breakfast. I don't know what came over me, but I wanted to make something yum for the family this morning.
I came up with something easy and delish! I'll call it...Savory Breakfast Bread. Served with eggs, it made the perfect Saturday morning breakfast.
This bread is savory and wonderfully moist. There is no need for buttering this bread! The recipe is easy and quick to prep.

Savory Breakfast Bread

Ingredients:

2 cups baking mix
2/3 cups almond milk (or regular milk)
2 tablespoons melted butter (or margarine)
1 Sausage Link (bratwurst size), I used Trader Joe's Sweet Basil Pesto Smoked Chicken and Turkey Sausage
3 Premade Meatballs, I used Aidells Italian Style with Mozzarella Cheese Chicken Meatballs
1 Generous handful shredded cheese
1 palm-full Shaved Parmesan Cheese
1/3 Cup Chopped Green Onion

Directions:

Preheat Oven to 450.
Mix together baking mix, milk, and butter. Set aside.
Cut sausage link in half, lengthwise. Then each half in half, lengthwise again. Then cut into pieces.
Cut Meatball into quarters.
Add meat, cheeses and onion to batter and stir until well blended.
Pour mixture into a silicone (I love these because I don't need extra fat to grease the pan with) bread pan.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, until sharp knife comes out "clean" (the cheese will leave some residue on knife, but the batter shouldn't be seen).
Slice and Enjoy with eggs, if desired.
