Cheese Bread

I know we all know how to make garlic and cheese bread, but this is a recipe with a twist. My grandma Rayna makes this bread and it is a HUGE family favorite. So much that there is NEVER a piece leftover and if you don't get one quick, its GONE. I hope you family loves it as much as ours!

Cheese Bread

1 loaf of french bread (can be either store bought or homemade.)
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup Mayonnaise
1 1/2 - 2 cups grated cheese

Turn oven on to broil. Mix green onions, mayonnaise, and cheese. Mix well, set aside. Slice french breach down the middle and place on a cookie sheet. Spread a thin layer of cheese mixture on the bread. Place bread in oven on broil for about 5 minutes or until golden brown and cheese is melted. Wait a few minutes, then slice and enjoy!

Loaded Baked Potato Soup

This soup is so wonderful!!! With all the gloomy, wet, rainy weather we have been having it was a great time to start making soup. My family loves this recipe. Thanks to Kelli for sharing it with us and to Jaime for sending me the recipe after Kelli moved.

Loaded Baked Potato Soup

4-6 potatoes
2/3 cup butter
2/3 cup flour
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
6 cups milk
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup green onions
10 strips of bacon / or pre-cooked crumbled bacon
1 cup cheese

Bake potatoes in the oven until done. (Some people like to boil them, but I think the soup tastes different.) Peel and cube potatoes. Melt butter in large sauce pan, stir in flour, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth. Gradually add milk, bring to a boil. Stir frequently or it will scorch. After it boils, cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, whisk in sour cream. Add potatoes, crumbled bacon, and cheese. Garnish each bowl with cheese, green onions, and bacon. When reheating soup the next day, add some milk to thin soup, also don't heat in the microwave, it will scorch.
