WeightWatchers Garlic Bread Recipe

Until a few years ago I didn’t like garlic at all – now I love it, and would eat it with almost anything.

Here’s a great garlic bread recipe that sounds difficult at first, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll realize it’s quite easy to prepare. This bread dresses up Italian or Mediterranean-type meals, and it disappears fast from the table, so if you’re expecting guests, make sure to prepare two loaves!

Course Appetizer

Cuisine American

Servings 8

Ingredients

1 loaf Italian bread or French bread unsliced
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1 garlic clove smashed (add another if desired)
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon oregano

Instructions

Slice loaf, LEAVING CRUST INTACT, into slices.
It is important NOT to slice through the bottom.
Set aside.
Mix butter with other ingredients.
Allow to sit on counter a while, so flavors travel all through the butter.
Take a length of foil, and place loaf lengthwise on the foil.
Very gently, spread slices apart, being careful not to break bottom, and spread with butter mixture.
When all slices are spread, use any leftover butter to spread the top of the loaf.
Wrap sides of foil up.
Leave top UNCOVERED.
Twist ends of foil.
Bake on tray for about 20-30 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
This is great with spaghetti or lasagna.
When baking lasagna, just put it in with the lasagna for the last half hour of baking time.
