Herbed Cheese Bread

Whenever I serve pasta, I try to serve some type of bread and salad to go with it.  A couple of weeks ago I needed a new recipe that was quick and easy as well and tasty.  After searching some of my favorite cookbooks, I came across this Herbed Cheese Bread.
It's a great way to use up the last of a loaf or use the whole loaf if you choose.  I really like the herbed butter and the gooey cheese on top.  My kids, including Mike loved this bread so I guess it's a keeper!

Herbed Cheese Bread
from Essential Mormon Celebrations Cookbook

1 loaf French bread
1/2 butter, softened
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh oregano or 1/2 tsp dried
1 tsp fresh thyme or 1/2 tsp dried
2 cups grated mozzarella cheese

Cut loaf in half lengthwise.  Stir butter, garlic, oregano and thyme together in a small bowl.  Spread each half of loaf with herbed butter.  Sprinkle 1 cup cheese on each half of bread.  Broil until cheese is melted.  Cut into slices.

*I sprinkled Parmesan cheese on top of the butter before adding the mozzarella cheese, which added another wonderful flavor!

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate. 

Bread Twists

These are my new go-to bread sticks for two reasons - taste and time. They have a wonderful buttery/garlic flavor and the kosher salt adds a delightful savory crunch.  The other thing I love about these is how quickly they come together.  It only takes one hour from start to finish.  One hour!  That's almost unheard of for a yeast bread.  Try these out next time you want some bread with your dinner but are short on time.
