This is a super easy, always delicious recipe for garlic bread with a twist. I got the idea for this recipe when eating out one evening, but developed it on my own. The nice thing about this recipe is that I often use it when I have some bread or buns which tastes a little too stale for sandwiches - so it's a great way to use those extras. If you're going out to buy the ingredients, check the day-old rack at your grocery store! The bottled minced garlic can be found in grocery store's condiment aisle. Fresh minced would also work, but I don't recommend dried since the cream cheese overpowers the taste.) It's a great appetizer, snack or side dish for a meal (especially anything with tomato) and even the pickiest eaters in my family love it. It's always the first thing gone at family functions! Ingredients:
2 slices crusty bread or 1 large roll |
4 tablespoons cream cheese (i use plain or herb&garlic) |
1 teaspoon bottled garlic or 1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic |
cheddar cheese, to top |
Directions:
1. Turn the broiler on. 2. Lay out the bread or cut the rolls in half lengthwise. 3. Spread 2 tbsp cream cheese on each slice/half. 4. Thinly spread half a tsp of garlic on each piece. 5. Top with cheddar cheese (cover entirely.). 6. Broil until cheese is bubbling and bread is crisp - depending on the heat of your broiler and how crisp you like it, 2-5 minutes. 7. Remove, let cool slightly and enjoy! |
