Savory Herb and Cheese Biscotti

Savory herb and cheese biscotti is my new cracker. I have a newfound love for biscotti and decided to try a savory type.

I really liked the herb and cheese flavor in this savory biscotti recipe. They were perfect with tomato basil soup,  like large dip-able croutons. Which is always a hit with my daughter.
