Most quick bread recipes you see are for sweet breads, this is a savory quick bread. Another recipe gem from a family friend. Perfect to serve along side a bowl of soup, as an appetizer (slice thin and add to any cheese tray), or dipped in your favorite marinara sauce. Quick, easy and exceptionally good.

This looks delicious! I wonder how it would be as muffins?
Christina – Great idea for muffins – I think they would be terrific!
I’ll have to give it a try. I’ve been very into savory muffins of late — pumpkin cornbread; zucchini, egg and cheese. These would fall right into that category, I think.
