Garlic bread - we've seen the light!

Tuna Pasta Bake with home made garlic bread
Every so often, when we're due to have a dish like Spaghetti Bolognese, or maybe the lovely Bacon & Leek Pasta, we'll go a bit mad and have some garlic bread with it.

We've progressed from the baguettes that you get in the freezer section of the supermarket, to slices of baguette - largely because they don't become rock hard once baked and you can grate a little cheese onto them to make them a little bit more special, if you want.

However - drum roll - hubby had a marvellous idea last Wednesday when we had the Tuna Pasta Bake.

Not difficult - and SO much nicer!
He took the leftover half of a French Stick, cut it into slices, whipped up some garlic butter, grated on some cheese, baked them in the oven at 180degC/350degF/Gas4 for around 10 minutes - and we had the best garlic bread we've ever had.

Why haven't we done this before?

The oven is on already - it's not as though we're having to put the oven on especially to bake the garlic bread.  It only takes a moment to make and if you've got the herbs in the garden already, then there's no excuse!

So long, supermarket garlic bread - hello home made!
