Time pressure? Don’t have an oven? Just want a slice or two of garlic bread? Here’s a quick and easy way to make garlic bread.
We’ve all been through that. The soup, sauce or whatever you’re making is almost ready and you completely forgot about the garlic bread.
You run like crazy to turn on the grill, then realize that by the time the garlic bread is done, the soup, sauce, or whatever will be cold.
The following quickie garlic bread is made for such situations.
As long as you have a toaster, some olive oil, and a clove of garlic, you’re good.
Of course, it’s not the same as oven-roasted, butter, garlic, and herb-infused garlic bread with a parmesan crust. If you have the luxury of time, definitely go for the full buck.
But if not, or if you just want a few slices of toasted bread with a hint of garlic flavor with your meal, then this recipe is for you.
