Comfort food comes in many forms. Soft warm bread with melted cheese being one of the the best forms in my humble opinion. This family style Cheesy Bread with Herbed Butter is truly a dreamy side dish!

Cheesy Bread with Herbed Butter!:

I chose a soft Belge loaf, but you can choose any artisan style loaf you prefer. Just make sure it’s good quality and super fresh!

What Goes In and On That Beautiful Loaf?

So much goodness! Here is the very simple how to…

Start by slicing the bread and placing cheese in between each slice. Then melt butter, add freshly chopped herbs and drizzle into all the nooks and crannies! Wrap bread in foil, pop in the oven…

…..and 25 minutes later you have a a warm, soft loaf of bread with melted cheese spilling out between the slices. Whenever I serve this bread it is devoured! In fact, this bread disappears so fast you may just want to make two loaves!

An easy, cheesy, bread side dish! If you like to add a little heat, use pepper jack cheese! NOTE: How much butter and cheese you need will depend on the size of your loaf. Mine was about 12" and I cut about 10 slices.
