Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1 loaf Italian bread
  • 8 ounces shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 16 ounces crisp cooked bacon (diced)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 tablespoon ranch dry dressing mix

Instruction

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