What Can I Bring? Cheesy Bread

We were invited to my father-in-law's house for a Super Bowl party and I asked what I could bring. "Nothing," was his standard reply, "I have plenty of food for everyone!"

Mm-hmm. I've heard that before. My sweet father-in-law does well in the meat department - he had more than enough of that. But sides and appetizers and desserts? That's where his daughters-in-law {my SILs and I} come in.

Only this time it was just me. I brought this appetizer cheesy bread, and two other guest's wives brought salads. And we had meat. And fun. :o)

I've seen this on the internet in a few places, and I'm not sure who to give credit to - so if it's your own personal invention, let me know and I'll link to you! It's a great idea, and went over really well - like, it was gone within a few minutes of coming out of the oven. {Note to self: make two next time!}

A loaf of bread, cut into one inch slices once/twice across but not all the way through the bottom of the loaf. You want it to remain held together on the bottom. Then I tucked grated cheddar cheese, some diced Canadian bacon, and a small amount of finely chopped red onion into the cuts. Wrap in foil and bake at 350° until the cheese is melted - 20-30 minutes depending on thickness of the bread. Pull apart with a fork and enjoy!

Yummy!
