Fresh Herb Garlic Bread

This may not be the healthiest option, but who doesn't love garlic bread?  This is made with fresh herbs.  Plus, when you make it yourself, you get to pick the kind of bread to use--one that you are happy with. All things considered, I bet you can make it right in your head.

There is enough in the recipe to cover a very large loaf.  I used 8 large Torta rolls split and still had mix left over.



Fresh Herb Garlic Bread

6 cloves garlic
1/4 c. fresh oregano, chopped
1/4 c. flat leaf parsley, chopped
1/2 t salt
dash of pepper
1/2 c. olive oil
2 T butter
Loaf of bread, split in half lengthwise ( like Ciabatta, Italian, etc) or rolls (like Torta.  They look like Ciabatta rolls to me.)  Or any bread you're cool with, really.

In a food processor, mince garlic.  Add the parsley, oregano, salt and pepper.  Pulse a couple times.

Heat the olive oil and butter in a sauce pan.  Add the garlic mix.

Spread the garlic oil mix over the bread.

You can put the halves together, wrap in tin foil and bake for 5 minutes at 350 degrees and then open the foil and bake another 5 minutes
OR
You can keep the halves open, sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan and bake at 350 for 5 minutes and broil for a couple minutes to finish them off.  I chose option 2 for the picture above.
