Crack Bread & Crack Dip

Tomorrow, we will be hosting an Arbonne party. If you don't know what this is, you are missing out. Since its ladies only, we figured we would try out some new recipes and snack a bit while we were relaxing. So here is what we are having! And for those of you who don't like the cheese or ranch parts, don't worry, there will be a healthy alternative with a veggie tray! :)

Crack Bread


1 unsliced loaf of (round is preferable) sourdough bread
8-12 oz cheddar cheese, thinly sliced
3 oz bag Oscar Mayer Real Bacon bits
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 Tbsp Ranch dressing mix

Using a sharp bread knife cut the bread going both directions. Do not cut through the bottom crust. Place slices of cheese in between cuts. Sprinkle bacon bits on bread, making sure to get in between cuts. Mix together butter and Ranch dressing mix. Pour over bread. Wrap in foil the entire loaf in foil and place on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Unwrap. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
