Munch Through Monday ... Pull Apart Cheddar Bacon Ranch Bread

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I wanted to share a recipe that is oh-so-delicious, but not oh-so-nutritious. Why you ask? Because food is supposed to taste good!! There are many healthy recipes that are delicious and it's super important to eat healthy ... but you're also allowed to indulge on mouth-watering, greasy, cheesy foods as well, sometimes. It's all about eating in moderation, right??


This recipe has four words in the title that already guarantee it's goodness: Cheddar Bacon Ranch Bread. 'Nuff said, I'm sold. And if you are too, read on to score a recipe for this addicting snack.
