Best ever Garlic bread !
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Best ever garlic bread! But, I made several changes. I bought from the store bakery - French Bread and cut it lengthwise in... 6" strips, about 1 inch thick. This was only $2 as compared to their Sourdough at $5. I used dried herbs as I didn't have fresh on hand and more parmesan than called for. I only used half the bread which was perfect as I would not have had enough topping for all I probably spread it thicker than recipe called for. But both my husband and I agreed it was the best Garlic bread we have ever had - anywhere! Will make again and again...........Read more

Overpowering Herbs
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

I found the fresh herbs to be all I could taste...couldn't taste the garlic. Maybe using dried herbs and cutting down the... amount might help. Because I needed it for dinner I kept adding butter to try and make it better but after using 3 sticks of butter it wasn't worth it.Read more
