Garlic bread is a flavorful side dish originating from Italian cuisine, often served alongside pasta dishes or soups. Traditionally made from baguette or Italian bread, it is sliced and coated with a mixture of butter, minced garlic, and parsley, then baked or toasted for a crispy, golden finish. Variations may include cheese or herbs for added richness. While garlic itself is known for its antioxidants and potential heart-health benefits, garlic bread's nutritional value depends on preparation. The butter and refined carbs from white bread contribute saturated fats and calories, which may be excessive in large portions. Opting for whole-grain bread and lighter spreads can improve its nutritional profile without compromising flavor. Loved for its bold taste and satisfying texture, garlic bread should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
