expert tips & tricks
HOW TO MAKE THIS LOWER IN FAT:
To make this gouda bread lower in fat, use fat free cheese! Sub fat free mozzarella or even fat free/low fat cream cheese on the inside instead of gouda.
how to serve & store
Serve this gouda bread right out of the oven! I love it hot and melty! Place it onto a cutting board, cut into desired size pieces (large for meals and small for appetizers or sharing!).
You can let the gouda bread rest for 3-5 minutes if you want more of a room temperature pizza that wont burn your mouth!
