Theres nothing better then a nice big toasty piece of homemade garlic bread. It may just be the perfect thing to compliment any meal.

Bread and butter are such a classic combination that everyone loves. Now, season that butter up, slather it onto some sliced bread and toast it in the oven and you've just made something good even better.

Whenvever I've been out to dinner with family and friends, the garlic bread is always our favorite part of the meal. That basket of bread goes fast!

This recipe tastes just like the kind that you'd get served at a restaurant. And let me just warn you, this will go fast, too.

Besides this being a fantastic appetizer to any meal, it's also super easy to make, too. This recipe can be whipped up in just 20 minutes with very minimal effort.

I've made this appetizer for holidays like Christmas and Thanksgiving and also for casual family dinners at home.

Everyone loves it and it's always a huge hit. I hope you give this recipe a try. If you do, I know you'll love it just as much as my family and friends do.
