Quick and easy olive cheese bread

I decided to try a recipe I saw on an episode of The Pioneer Woman. Ree Drummond made an olive cheese bread that looked delicious, quick and easy.

olive and cheese mixture

Green and black olives, green onion, cheese, butter and mayo make up this recipe. I substituted the mayo and used greek yogurt instead. The recipe calls for two green onions, but I used four. The mixture may look like a lot, but I used every bit of it. Prep time was around 10 minutes. I cooked the bread at 325 degrees for 30 minutes.


 
The taste: Savory, crunchy, salty goodness! The French bread cooked up perfectly and the saltiness of the olives was just right. The Monterrey Jack cheese was gooey and delicious. This olive cheese bread is a very rich and filling. I had leftovers and reheated them in the oven for olive cheese bread round two at dinner! You can even make and freeze these as well.
