Instructions

  • In a large bowl, add the softened butter, pressed garlic, mayonnaise, and. It’s shredded cheeses. I love using this grater for getting the most flavor out of garlic.
  • Mix all the ingredients well using a spatula.

  • Now slice a large loaf of French bread or bread of your choice in half.
  • Line a baking sheet with foil and place both of the sliced bread pieces open face up.
  • Now spread the garlic cheese mixture on both slices and broil in the oven for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted lightly browned. Once your bread is baked, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing it up into strips. Make sure to use a bread knife when cutting.

Notes

Flavor variations
  • Make it spicy- Substitute pepper jack cheese for mozzarella and add some jalapenos on top.
  • Caprese bread- Use fresh mozzarella, tomato slices, and fresh basil to make this version.
  • Go gourmet- Make your garlic bread with gruyere cheese and mushrooms.
  • Herbs & Lemon- Fresh herbs, feta cheese, and lemon- yum!
