<\/p>\n

I am an RD.\u00a0 My Mom tried to teach me to cook when I was young.\u00a0 I told her that it was a waste of time, as I would never have to cook for anyone else!\u00a0 I spent the first few years of my marriage calling my Mom long distance asking how to make meatloaf, mashed potatoes, etc….\u00a0\u00a0 Bread was never on my radar screen.\u00a0 Only really cool people baked.\u00a0 Yeast was scary!<\/p>\n

Then I started working at the Extension Office, and Metropolitan Culinary Institute.\u00a0 I started taking culinary classes one at a time per year.\u00a0 One of them was an artisan bread class.\u00a0 My cooking life really changed after that!\u00a0 I loved to bake anyway, but fresh yeast bread is the best!\u00a0 I learned how to bake all sorts of breads, but the one my instructor called seedy weedy was my favorite!\u00a0 I have made that recipe many times.\u00a0 I am the only person in my white bread family who eats it, so I don’t make it that much.\u00a0 Over the years, I have tried making a version of that bread with other recipes.\u00a0 Something fast–and easy.<\/p>\n

This recipe I found that works the best for me is the one I found in the American Profile section of my local newspaper.\u00a0 I liked the basic recipe–it was tasty–but I thought it needed MORE!\u00a0 So I added garlic and seeds.\u00a0 It makes a wonderful hearty bread that goes well with soups and stews.\u00a0 I like it toasted the next day for breakfast.\u00a0 It makes a great lunch with a piece of sharp cheddar.\u00a0 I could go on for a long time!<\/p>\n

I love to add a mixture of seeds–sunflower, sesame and poppy seeds are my favorites.\u00a0 Pistachio nuts and pumpkin seeds are also great in this bread, but most of the time my kiddos have eaten them.\u00a0 I sometimes toast my seeds quickly in a pan to bring out more of the essential oils!\u00a0 Give this quick, tasty bread a try today–you will not be sad!<\/p>\n
