King's Hawaiian Bread French Toast

Hi Ya'll! I grew up with Hawaiian bread. It was my mom's go to item for big family get together's and picnics. She would take the round loaf and cut the top part off, put meat and cheese on the bottom half and put the top back on. She would then cut it like a pie and we all got yummy pie shaped sandwiches.. Mmm makes me drool just thinking about those sandwiches..

 I never knew you could do other things with Hawaiian bread until I met my husband. His favorite thing to do with this bread is to cut a hole in the top and scoop some of the bread out then fill the hole with dill dip. Yum! That has become our go to/must have item for parties!! We also like taking the sandwich buns that they now have and using them for burgers. It adds just a hint of sweet to your burger and makes it that much better!

Turns out there are many many more things you can do with this bread!! Just go to the King's Hawaiian Bread website for more recipe idea's.
