When the days grow shorter, the air gets cooler and the leaves get a little prettier, my family loves to build a good bonfire. It’s our favorite way to chill out and spend some un-plugged family time together. But before we build a fire, first we fill our bellies with some good, warm food. Our standard family meal in the cooler months is usually soup or stew, which is a great way to feed a crowd. However making yet another batch of Loaded Potato Soup gets kind of boring, so for our latest family get-together I decided to add something new with a little help from Hidden Valley® Original Ranch®.
This recipe is a new favorite at our house, and I’ve already had to make a second batch! Of course, regular cheese bread can be a little bland, but add a little Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® and it will take on a whole new life. Whether you’re adding it to a meal or just looking for an appetizer for your next party, this recipe is sure to be a hit. With just a few every day ingredients, you can make this Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Cheese Bread in about 20 minutes. And it’s so much better than regular cheese bread because of the great herbs and spices of Hidden Valley® Original Ranch®.
Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Cheese Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
1 stick (1/2 cup) room temperature unsalted butter
1 (1 oz.) package of Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Salad Dressing and Seasoning Mix
2 cups finely shredded four cheese blend cheese
1 roll of sheet style crescent roll dough (pop open style)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, mix together the butter and Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Salad Dressing and Seasoning Mix. On a lined baking sheet, roll out the sheet of crescent roll dough. Spread the Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® butter mix in a thin layer, covering the entire top of the dough, then top with cheese. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edge of dough is golden brown. Makes 24 breadsticks. 
From now on, when I want to spice up a recipe, I’m going to Hidden Valley It! I can think of lots of great ideas for recipes, tons of versatility, ways to spice-up salads, dips, and even revive some old recipes for holiday parties this year. You can find lots of great ideas by following them on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter or Instagram.
Which makes me wonder…. what’s your favorite soup/meal for fall?

my favorite is tomatoe soup and rice with grilled cheese sandwiche
This looks delicious. I’m not sure it’s my favorite soup, but I like split pea soup. I make a lot of different kinds of soup, though. It’s easy to make a big batch and freeze in serving size containers.
My favorite soup would have to be borsch (Russian soup) . It is wonderful during the winter, full of vitamins especially when you eat it with garlic, onions, and homemade bread. Yum!
In our house we love homemade chicken noodle soup and chili!
I love to make a white chicken chili with green salsa in the fall.

Broccoli cheddar soup is my favorite
I like tomato soup with grilled cheese.
For fall we love beef barley and mushroom soup.
Of course a loaf of Rhodes frozen bread dough is baked to dunk in the soup!

Some sort of soup with grilled cheese. Different sorts of cheese on different kinds of breads. My favorite is grilled provalone on cinnamon raisin bread.
Chicken pot pie is my favorite fall meal. So comforting on a chilly autumn day!
My favorite soup is old fashioned vegetable beef. I make a huge pot because it’s even better the next day.
My favorite soup to make this time of year is Tuscan Vegetable Soup. It’s so healthy and fast.
Gonna try the bread…looks so yummy..
