marcra

This is a very easy recipe to make. I have not made homemade bread for decades but decided to try it during the covid lockdown because I had all the ingredients in my pantry. Followed the recipe exactly except I used all purpose flour because that is what I had. It took a little longer to rise than stated in the instructions. Turned out light and very tasty. My husband ate a half of loaf while it was still warm....who can resist bread still warm from the oven? Great results. Will make this again.

I made this with leftover ham and veges from thanksgiving dinner. My husband is an avid casserole hater and he went back for seconds. He said he really liked this! I added some celery, carrots, red and green peppers that were left over from our relish tray. I boiled the celery and carrots with the potato and sautéed the peppers with the onion. A very tasty one dish meal! All I had for bread crumbs were Italian panko crumbs, but they added a nice flavor. Enough left over for lunch tomorrow. I will make this again.
