Description

Homemade garlic bread is quick and easy to make and always pairs well with Italian pasta dishes.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder

• 1 (1 pound) loaf Italian bread, cut into 1/2-inch slices
• 1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozarella cheese

1. Gather all ingredients.
2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3. Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; stir in garlic powder and dried parsley.
4. Place bread slices on a medium baking sheet. Using a basting brush, brush bread generously with melted butter mixture.
