Bacon Garlic Cheese Bread – Loaf bread topped with oozy cheese, garlic, bacon and seasonings for a scrumptious appetizer that’s easy to share.
Here’s a recipe almost everyone can relate to and I’ll share why in a moment. But first let’s just feast our eyes…shall we? Look at that stringy delish cheese. It’s just begging for fingers to pull it apart and share. C’mon on work with me here. You know it’s tempting.
The kids could hardly wait to dive into this pleasing plate! I wonder why. It’s some of their favorite foods of all times.
But as we all know, the fingers need to stay away until mom gets to play. Well, maybe you wouldn’t call it playing but as old as I am…the only playground I routinely participate in is the photography one. And this one was PURE FUN!
So I promised you some reasons. Here we go:
- Adaptable – Use any bread you want. I personally love homemade and there’s quite a variety here. So take your pick! But the NEW Rustic Italian Bread would be perfect for this.
- Easy – So simple. Grab a loaf of bread, some bacon, cheese and you’re on your way to an easy delight.
- Share – This is too great not to share. Cut it down in slices and it’s perfect party or buffet food.
- Favorite – When can you go wrong with bacon and cheese? Some of life’s greatest food staples.
Enjoy. I hope I’ve found enough ways to convince you to make Bacon Cheese bread.
Thanks for being here friends!

Sometimes, my daughter wishes she had siblings – but if I made her this loaf using GF bread, Melanie, she might be happy she doesn’t have any as she wouldn’t have to share any of it with anybody else! YUM!
