Is that bread machine that you purchased a few years ago collecting dust in the cupboard? It is time to retrieve it.
Baking bread using a bread machine is one of the easiest jobs in the kitchen, yet produces spectacular results.
Basil Tomato Parmesan Bread is a moist and savoury bread, a mixture of all flavours Italian and it is made in a bread machine.
I recently served this bread with Spaghetti with Meat Sauce, but it would go equally well with an Antipasto platter or a hearty soup. I even like it toasted up in the morning along with my egg omelet.
