Dear D'Arcy

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread

Cheaters Homemade garlic bread

Hello, Pretty ladies.

Today’s Sunday recipe is one of my Family’s all-time favorite garlic bread! I shared a little of their reaction below. I hope you try this recipe, and let me know in the comments. Have a great Sunday. 

 

Homemade Garlic bread!

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread! This is so dang good I have to make two loaves for this Family of 7!

Garlic Bread Recipe:

Loaf Rhodes Frozen Bread

One cube butter

One tablespoon of  minced garlic

 Tablespoon (1) Garlic Seasoning

1/2 Teaspoon Italian Seasoning

NOTE: This Bread is not for someone on a diet 

How to:

First, Place the frozen loaf on a cooking sheet lined with parchment paper, and cover it with a linen dishtowel.

(or cheesecloth) let rise. (follow directions on the bag) Bread rising usually takes ALL day. I’ll get this ready at about 9:00 am to make for dinner around 6:00 pm. When risen, bake at 350 until golden brown. (follow the directions on the packaging.)  While Bread is baking, melt a cube of butter in the microwave, then add garlic and seasoning and mix. 

When the Bread is out of the oven, brush on a heavy coating of the Butter mixture. Let excellent for about 10-15 minutes slice (Bread will still be warm and will sink, it’s ok), then coat each piece with more butter mixture. Serve hot and almost gooey. 

Family’s reaction:

This Bread is a family favorite, and when my family sees it on the counter in the morning, they jump for joy. They’ll eat two whole loaves; if I made three, that would get eaten too. It’s so rich, soaked in butter and garlic. It’s heavenly! I serve this Bread with soups, Pasta, and even salads. If you watch my stories, and I hope you do, you’ve seen me make it several times while staying at home was in place. ( heck, probably one of the reasons I’ve gained 10 pounds!) 

How did it get its name? Well…Cheaters because, well, you cheating and not making the loaf from scratch! Nobody’s got time for that! Insert Giggle! Hence, I named it My Cheater’s homemade garlic bread.

 

Thank you

—It’s no secret I love bread and butter with a pin —It’s no secret I love bread and butter with a pinch of French flaky salt-

Let me tell you, @bonruebakery
Does it right✔️

They Started with a baguette….🥖 and grew to a full French Bakery … serving beloved French pastry’s, breads and delicious sandwiches and salads.

Using the best French ingredients- Down to the delish French milk chocolate for their chocolate croissants 🥐 

Ben and I had the pleasure of attending a fun “French flea market” pre-opening event. To preview and sample the menu.

We made it a Date-night, with incorporating a beautiful scenic Fall🍂Drive to attend this fun event. Perfect evening🖤

Gorgeous drive, yummy food, great music and amazing local vendors- from local honey and jams, delicious olive oil & vinegars, beautiful flowers, and handmade cards. 

Thank you @bonruebakery for hosting us, for a little touch of Paris in the heart of Provo,Ut.

Stay tuned for @bonruebakery opening in more locations in Utah .

Meanwhile TODAY October, 10th is the grand opening of their Provo location 

Located across the street from BYU…

Do you have a small grandchild or baby? This is Do you have a small grandchild or baby?

This  is a fun and easy project
To capture their small foot print forever 🖤

Turning those tootsies into a spooky little treasure to cherish for Falls to come.

Make on for yourself and one for the parents😉

You’ll need:

-A fun nature print or vintage barn canvas… Something that looks like fall without being Halloween.

-I found a barn canvas at vintage market days and I found a fun print I could frame for my DIL.. Search vintage shops, goodwill and even the big box shops have affordable framed canvas, that could work

- Washable white paint , I used

-Med size foam brush 
-Paper plate

I put little man in the high chair with a snack and painted one foot at a time, lifted him out and pressed foot on canvas. 

Remeber to have artwork upside down, so the toes will be the bottom of the ghost on the Art. 

I then placed him in the chair again, did the other foot and repeated with the other foot. 
Pressing this foot a little higher than the other..

Making it look like two little ghost flying:)👻👻👻

-When dry 

- With a black sharpie pen put two dots on the heels of the foot print🖤

Enjoy….

Do you like little seasonal projects? Or projects you can do with your grandbaby?
