I’m telling you, this Bacon and Cheese Garlic Bread is so yummy! I like to place the loaf on a baking sheet before I put it in the oven, just in case there is any spill out. Also, because I am all about cutting my prep time as much as I can, I like to use the Hormel Real Bacon bits. I get the ones that come in a bag. They’re bigger pieces and I use them in all kinds of things. If bread is something you serve a lot of in your home, I really suggest having a good bread knife. The one I have is THIS ONE. It never crushes my bread and you can get it for a great price.
