this is an easy recipe if you would like to try it:
1/2 cup butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 loaf unsliced Italian bread
Combine butter and garlic in a small microwave dish. Microwave on high for 1 - 2 minutes, until butter is barely melted. Remove from microwave and stir in Italian seasoning, paprika and Parmesan cheese.
Slice bread into thick diagonal slices. Place slices on a large baking sheet. Spread top of each slice with garlic butter. Place in oven, about 4 inches from the broiler. Heat on broil for 2 - 3 minutes, until lightly toasted. Serve immediately.
