As I mentioned, you can serve this bread with a pasta meal, by itself or even with salads. We like it dipped in a mixture of olive oil and parmesan cheese. You can also add other spices like Rosemary or basil to give it a little kick, but my boys won’t eat anything that has suspicious looking green flecks in it. Sigh.
This recipe is very quick and easy, but it looks and tastes like you spent all day working on it. I won’t tell if you don’t.
