Monday's Meal

We had this on Thursday night and ... OH MY WORD! It was very good. I think we actually more of it than the main dish. I think I may have printed this from a recipe e-zine -- which is basically an email magazine/newsletter. If ever you would like to check one out, try Real Food 4 Real People. It has a section where people can make requests and get answers from other readers, which is probably my favorite part. As for this recipe, if you plan to have pasta or some other Italian dish, this would probably be a great side addition. We had it with creamy chicken and noodles. Actually, I imagine you could have it with pretty much anything but I think I'd like some spaghetti sauce or marinara to dip it in next time. We didn't have any green onions on hand and I didn't want to go to the store, so we left those out. Probably one reason my kids liked it so much.

Garlic Parmesan Pull-Apart Bread (by Leanne)

3 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
3 tablespoons parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons butter, melted
2 eggs
2 (1 pound) loaves frozen bread dough, thawed (or one freshly made homemade bread dough recipe is what I used -- like this one)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese

Grease a 10-inch Bundt pan or tube pan. In a medium bowl, mix together the green onion, parsley, garlic powder, salt, butter and eggs until well blended. Bread off the bread dough in walnut-sized pieces and dip each piece into the egg mixture. Place coated dough balls into the prepared pan covering the bottom. After making one layer of dough, sprinkle Parmesan cheese all over the dough balls. Repeat, sprinkling each layer of coated dough balls with Parmesan until everything is in the pan. Cover loosely and allow to rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
