Ingredients
- 4 lices Texas toast
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 teaspoons Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Set the oven to broil.
- Soften the butter.
- Spread butter evenly on both sides of the 4 bread slices.
- Lightly sprinkle garlic powder on both sides of the bread slices.
- Place the buttered bread on a baking sheet.
- Put the bread in the oven under the broiler. The bread will toast for 1 to 3 minutes. The closer the bread is to the broiler the faster it will toast.
- Once the first side is toasted, remove it from the oven.
- Flip over the bread to where the untoasted side is up.
- Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of cheese on each slice of bread.
- Return the bread to the oven.
- Toast the bread until it is golden brown.

Notes
- For best results, watch the bread carefully while broiling as broilers vary greatly in heat intensity. If you don't have thick-sliced bread, ask your grocery store bakery to cut a loaf of Italian bread into 1-inch slices.
