Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Cheesy Hawaiian Pull-Apart Bread

Pull-apart bread is so great. Usually made with a round loaf of sourdough, there are just so many options to use to make it. Since IT Guy's not a big fan of sourdough, I decided to use King's Hawaiian instead. The sweet taste of the bread with the onion and the savory cheese makes a great side with spaghetti or lasagne...or even soup! Serve as an appetizer, too!

Cheesy Hawaiian Pull-Apart Bread



1 round loaf King's Hawaiian Bread
1 small red onion ~ finely diced
1/4 cup butter ~ melted
2 cups grated Monterrey Jack cheese

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Leave bread in the foil pan in comes in and make slices 1 inch apart in a grid pattern. Let the foil pan be your guide as to how far down to cut but slice down into the middle of the bread so the pieces will come out easier.

Force the bread pieces open then drizzle the melted butter over the loaf.

Sprinkle with onions.

Scatter cheese onto the loaf, pressing some of it in between the slices then sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.

Set the pan on a baking sheet and cover with foil. 

Allow bread to cook for 30 minutes until cheese is melted.

Remove foil, pull apart and eat.
