Homemade Cheesy Bread

I'm back!!!!  Thanks for being patient with me while I was absent for the last month.  Hopefully, now that we are into May, the school year will wind down and life will settle down for a bit.  But we'll see.  Life has a way of throwing curveballs, doesn't it.
Some nights, you get thrown curve balls and are in a pinch for dinner.  This cheesy bread is perfect for such nights!  It can fill in as an appetizer, a side dish, or, in a pinch, even the main meal (shhh, I won't tell anyone!).  It's that delicious and super simple to make.  You can either use prebought pizza/bread dough, or if you have more time, you can also make your own dough.  





Homemade Cheesy Bread
Ingredients:

  • 1 package of store-bought pizza dough - I buy ours in the bakery at the grocery store, can also be found frozen.  Or make your own!
  • 1/2 stick butter - melted
  • 2 gloves garlic mashed or dried garlic flake. Either works, adjust according to taste
  • 1 1/2 to 2 cups bag mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese

Directions:
Let dough rise according to directions or make your own.  Preheat oven to 375 degrees. 
I used a baking stone for this bread, but you can also use a pizza pan.  If using a stone, preheat it for 20 minutes, if using a pan, spray with non-stick spray.  
Turn dough out on pan and push edges to shape into a flat pizza shape.
Mix melted butter and garlic together. Using a pastry brush, brush mixture onto dough.
Spread out mozzarella cheese over the top, spreading evenly.
Add cheddar cheese for flavor and color - sprinkle evenly over top.
Bake for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and starts to brown.
Enjoy fresh out of the oven!
