I tried these and they were pretty good. Thanks for the recipe! But I didn’t have any bacon, and you could definitely tell that it was missing something.
I’ve been making this recipe for a while (i even made it for V-day bunco), except it is called cheeseburger bread. It didn’t include bacon, but I like the idea! I will have to update my recipe! It’s a hit with my family too. Great to take on picnics, too!
I don’t think I tried them at Bunch Heather! They really are good with the bacon . . . James absolutely loved them 🙂
Thinking if you don’t have pizza dough, you could probably use bisquik to make some, or even make this recipe using crescent rolls (who doesn’t have 5 cans of those in their fridge?)
Great idea Julie! (Oh my goodness, with crescent rolls those would be yummmmyyyyyy!)
