An easy way to dress up a plain loaf of bread! Great as an appetizer or as a side dish to grilled steaks. My local grocery sells a blend of mozzarella and provolone cheese that I use.
Ingredients
- butter: 0.5 cup (melted)
- fresh parsley: 3 Tbsp (chopped)
- olive oil: 2 Tbsp
- garlic: 3 clove (minced)
- loaf Italian bread: 1 piece
- ounces shredded Italian cheese blend: 12 piece

Stages of cooking
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
Mix melted butter, parsley, olive oil, and garlic together in a bowl.
-
Slice bread diagonally without cutting all the way through; do the same on the opposite diagonal to create cube-shaped sections still attached to the bottom crust.
-
Spoon butter mixture carefully between sections; stuff in shredded Italian cheese blend. Wrap loaf in aluminum foil.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; unwrap and bake until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes more.
