If you are having salad as a main dish, it needs something on the side (unless, of course you are piling it high with meat and cheese). I started something new this year in making salads early in the week, vacuum sealing them, and pulling one out every day to enjoy with a half a sandwich, a cup of soup, or a roll. I love the convenience of it all. The other day I wanted something different with my salad and the thought of cheese garlic bread popped into my head. I found a recipe on The Feed Feed that looked interesting because the garlic was roasted. I adapted that recipe to include a topping of grated mozzarella cheese, and it is phenomenal! It was so good, in fact, that I spread the mixture on a slice of rustic bread and had it for breakfast the next day, topped with slices of avocado. Delish!
Cheesy Garlic Bread
Adapted from thefeedfeed.com
1 bulb garlic
1 T. olive oil
Pinch sea salt
½ c. butter, room temperature
2 T. fresh parsley, finely chopped
½ t. red pepper flakes
½ c. grated Parmesan
Pinch of kosher salt
Few gratings freshly ground black pepper
1 c. grated mozzarella cheese
One baguette
Preheat oven to 400° F.
Drizzle the garlic bulb with olive oil and sprinkle sea salt on top. Wrap
tightly in foil and roast in the oven for 30 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Put the softened butter into a bowl and add the parsley, olive oil, red pepper
flakes, Parmesan, and generous pinches of salt and pepper. Beat everything
together. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of the bulb and beat it into the
butter.
Slice a baguette in half lengthwise and cut each half into three pieces. Spread
a generous amount of garlic butter on each side. Sprinkle top with grated
mozzarella.
Bake the garlic bread for 12 to 14 minutes until edges are golden and the
cheese has melted.

I will try this for sure!
Cheese bread, garlic bread, banana bread, olive oil bread are so popular here! I have tried couple of them but your cheese and garlic combination bread looks great and looks very new. Thanks for the recipe.
Your lunches sound lovely! And this cheesy garlic bread looks scrumptious, especially with the avocadoes you mentioned. I have some ripening now and can't wait to eat them. :)
I'm leaving this comment on an older post on purpose - hope we all see a new blog post soon! Be well (:
