Garlic bread is a classic and a bread I love to make. In my opinion, the key to making it is the texture of the bread. That’s why I always use ciabatta bread when making this recipe. It always, turns out spectacular. I serve it up with spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, and even salads. Believe me, it is also wonderful as a snack or finger food at parties.
