Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole grain bread
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Low-sodium cheese (Swiss or Mozzarella), shredded
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter and minced garlic. Mix well until you have a well-combined garlic butter.
Evenly spread the garlic butter on one side of each slice of whole grain bread.
Sprinkle the shredded low-sodium cheese over the buttered side of the bread slices.
Add a pinch of black pepper and the chopped fresh parsley evenly over the cheese for added flavor.
Place the prepared bread slices on a baking sheet, cheese-side up.
Lightly spray the slices with olive oil to promote a golden color when baked.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden brown.
Remove the toast from the oven and let them cool for a minute before serving.
Serve the low sodium garlic cheese toast warm as a snack or appetizer.
