Simply Amazing Easy Cheese Bread

Focaccia Cheese Bread – one of the easiest bread recipes you will ever try, and one of the tastiest! Everyone loves this cheesy herb bread!

My kids call this cheesy focaccia bread “that yummy bread”, and for good reason. It is daaang good! It is also super fast and easy, so it is pretty much one of my very favorite side dishes. I try to serve it every time we have Italian food.

I don’t like to admit this, but once on a particularly hairy day I served it as a main dish. Please don’t judge me- we also had a green salad and carrots with dip, so it balanced out, OK. Thank you. Now go make some of this cheese bread!
