Cheesey Garlic Bread

 

This is my FAVORITE bread!

Ingredients:

1 loaf Italian bread, halved lengthwise
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (we use the dried stuff)
2 garlic cloves, finley chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese (we use mozarella)

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350

2. Melt the butter in a small sauce pan over medium heat, or in a microwave. Stir in the parsley, garlic and salt. Spoon the butter mixture over the cut sides of the bread. Scatter the cheese over the bottom half of the loaf, and top with the other half. (Put the bread back together)

3. Wrap the loaf in aluminum foil and transfer to a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Using a serrated knife, slice the bread and serve immediately.

I never eat all of it at dinner, so I wrap it up in foil, heat it up in the microwave and its even better!
