Oh, this was so good! I made this to serve with chili and this was the star of the meal. I baked this in the oven and opened the top of the foil for the last 10 minutes to crisp up the bread. When I removed the loaf from the oven, I sliced it lengthwise from top to bottom to form smaller slices that were easier to grab.
