Garlic bread toast for breakfast, lunch, or dinner…and even for snacks! One of my favorite ways to serve them is to dip in some olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Perfect for appetizers before a pasta dinner!
Since I love to cook, I opt to make my own rather than buy from the bakery. At least I can adjust the flavor according to taste. I also taught the boys how to make garlic bread so they can make their own if they want more. Best way to make them help out at home is to teach them cooking skills at an early age. Even though they are boys, they should also learn to be useful in household chores.
Leftover garlic bread toast can be placed in airtight containers then stored in the fridge. You can reheat them in the oven or toaster for about 3 minutes to make it crunchy again. However, in our family, we never have leftovers! That is why I make sure that I always bake some extra for storage. You never know when you’ll need some extra bread!
Garlic Bread Galore For Your Foodie Needs!
This homemade garlic bread is easy and great for pasta dishes. I cook pasta once or twice a week so it really comes in handy. You can also slice them into cubes and use them as croutons for soup and salad. Weekends are special coz it is our bonding time. My husband and I love to cook so during weekends, we have an abundance of food, which includes soup and salad. Of course, the garlic bread can be used as croutons. Serve them on date night with delicious Fettuccine Alfredo!
