This Sun-Dried Tomato and Mozzarella Quick Bread is the perfect pairing for your favorite soup, stew, or salad. It cooks up super quick, making it a great addition to your weeknight rotation!
I’m a total sucker for carbs. Especially when they’re paired with a warm, comforting bowl of soup. It just makes for the perfect combo, if you ask me.
The only thing with homemade bread is that, most days, I don’t have the time (or memory) to mix up the dough hours beforehand to be able to wait and let it rise. This busy mama ain’t got time for that!
So that’s why I’m obsessed with quick breads like this one.
I actually first introduced this recipe way back in 2012, when it was paired in with my recipe for Italian Style Tomato and Meatball Soup (<– SO good, by the way!).
The inspiration for this bread actually came from my Cheesy Italian Quick Bread, which is another favorite of mine. Same idea, but the extra flavor from the sun-dried tomatoes really shines through.
And then, of course, there’s the cheese. So. Good.
