Cheesy Garlic Bread*
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
1 medium loaf French bread, unsliced
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 cloves garlic, halved
1 tsp dried parsley
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Cut slices down the length of bread loaf at 1-inch intervals, without cutting all the way through.
Rub slices and top of loaf with cut sides of garlic halves. Mince garlic.
Combine butter, garlic, parsley and Parmesan in a small bowl. Spread butter mixture between bread slices and on top of loaf.
Wrap bread in foil, leaving top partially uncovered. Bake until heated through, about 15 minutes.
(For a variation, substitute white Cheddar cheese for the Parmesan and chopped chives for the parsley.)
