Garlic Bread

Garlic Bread

While using frozen garlic bread is absolutely okay, I prefer to make my own garlic butter spread to use on slices of bakery bread. You can make it as thick or as light as you like it!

Here’s what I used:

¼ cup margarine
½ tsp granulated garlic
¼ tsp dried basil
1/8 tsp dried dill
½ tsp dried parsley
6 slices of bakery bread, such as a French or Italian bread (I used a Chicago Italian bread, but this will work with just about any kind of bread.)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mix the margarine, garlic, basil, dill, and parsley together.

Lay the slices of bread onto a baking sheet. (You can spray the baking sheet with non-stick spray, but it isn’t necessary.)  Spread the butter mixture onto each slice of bread.  I was able to get about ½-1 tbsp of the butter onto each slice.  (Use as much or as little as you like, you can always store the rest of the mixture in the fridge, covered,, within a 2 or 3 days.)

Serve the bread!  This goes great with the Mozzarella Stuffed Meatballs over Fresh Wheat Pasta!
