Ingredients
  

  • 1 stick unsalted butter softened
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 slices of white bread cut into 1-inch thick slices (you can use regular white bread or French bread)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Italian seasoning to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the broiler in your oven. In a small bowl, combine the butter and garlic powder. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Brush both sides of each slice of bread with the butter mixture and arrange them on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Broil the bread for 1 minute on each side, or until lightly golden brown. Sprinkle cheese and Italian seasoning on one side of the bread and broil until the cheese is melted.
  • Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.

Notes

For this recipe, mozzarella cheese is our preferred choice, but you can use any cheese you like. A combination of mozzarella and Parmesan would also be a delicious option, adding extra flavor and richness.
