Cheddar Bacon Ranch Pulls
17 Jan
Cheddar Bacon Ranch Pulls are an amazingly delicious snack, perfect for parties. It is a bit indulgent, you wouldn’t want to sit down and eat the entire loaf yourself, but it is so good it wont last long at your get togethers.
With the Super Bowl right around the corner, I couldn’t think of a better snack to put out on the table. Kind of like a blooming onion, people pull chunks of bread off and pop them right in their mouth. The cheesy bacon ranch goodness is sure to be a number one favorite at your football party. You can mix it up by using chopped broccoli florets instead of the bacon bits.
