Issue #1: Quick & Easy Recipes

*Cheesy Bread*
Use our Pizza Bread and cut into slices.  Butter one side and place cheese on the bread.  Provolone works best, but you can use your own blend of all sorts of cheeses.  Once one side of the bread has been buttered and topped with cheese, place under the broiler in your oven for 3 to 5 minutes (or until edges are golden brown with a bit of a crisp).  Serve with marinara sauce or ranch dressing.  This is a perfect addition to Pizza or Spaghetti!  Works well when done over a wood grill too!

*Tim's French Toast*
My brother-in-law Tim told me about this one!  It's a favorite in their household!  Take day or two old Pinwheel Bread (if a loaf lasts that long) and slice it thick.  In a small bowl combine one egg and a approx. a tablespoon of milk.  Preheat frying pan to med, med-high.  Coat both sides of bread and cook like you would French Toast.  Serve with or without syrup.

*French Bread Pizza*
Take a loaf of our Old World Italian bread and slice down the center to open the bread.  Use your own favorite sauce recipe or try an alfredo sauce for your base.  Top with cheese and your choice of pizza toppings.  Place under the broiler for 5 to 7 minutes.  The edges should get nice and dark.  Try this with all sorts of hot subs for your family!

*Kandice's Bruchetta*
You'll need approx. 3 to 4 decent sized tomatoes.  Core and squeeze out any excess juice (save your juice for chili or tomato soup).  Dice the tomatoes into tiny chunks.  Mince approx. 3 tablespoons worth of sweet onion and mix with the tomatoes.    Add 1 teaspoon of sea salt, 1 tsp of Apple Cider Vinegar and 1 tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive oil and a pinch of good quality black pepper.  Use only fresh Parmesan cheese and either chunk it in small pieces or use a cheese nice and have long thin pieces that curl.   Do this with a little over 1/4 cup and gently add it to the remaining mixture.  Let mixture sit in the fridge for a few hours for best results.  Top this over our Herbed Focaccia Bread for the perfect appetizer!  It's a favorite of all my family & friends!

*Herbed Croutons*
Take a loaf of our Focaccia Bread that is a couple days old.  Slice it into chunks and place on a drying/cooling rack for a few hours.  In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil with a pinch of salt, black pepper and garlic powder.  Cook it till it begins to lightly bubble and then remove from heat.  Place dried croutons on a bakingstone or cookie sheet.  Using a baster brush, coat the croutons with the oil mixture on one side.  Place under broiler for 5-7 minutes.  Remove from the oven, baste the other side and repeat the process.  Allow to bake until you reach your own desired crispness.
