Categories: Pizza/flatbread

Ingredients

• 1 loaf of Italian Bread
• 8 ounces shredded Mexican cheese blend
• 16 ounces crisp cooked bacon, diced
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon Hidden Valley Ranch dry dressing mix

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.  Prepare 2 sheets of aluminum foil to wrap bread in, overlap the foil so the bread will be completely covered.

2. On a cutting board, slice bread in 3/4-inch intervals, being careful to not cut all the way through. Cut again, crosswise, not cutting all the way through.

3. Slide bread onto foil and stuff cheese between all cuts: sprinkle with bacon.  Mix melted butter and ranch mix, with a fork, and drizzle over top of bread evenly.

4. Wrap foil around bread snuggly and bake for 15 minutes; uncover and bake 10 minutes more. Serve hot.  Enjoy!
