Directions
- PREHEAT oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- SLICE the French bread in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4 equal pieces. Lay them cut side up on the baking sheet.
- SPREAD a thin layer of butter across the top of each piece of bread, then sprinkle lightly with garlic salt.
- TOP with mozzarella cheese, evenly dividing the cheese between the 8 bread pieces.
- HEAT the marinara sauce on your stove top or microwave, put in a serving bowl and set aside.
-
BROIL the bread pieces on the top rack of the oven for 3 - 5 minutes until the cheese bubbles and is golden brown.
-
GARNISH with fresh chopped parsley if desired.
- SERVE with the warmed marinara sauce for “dunking”.
