Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Spread grilled bread slices with goat cheese.
  • tip 2
    The name of this traditional Italian garlic bread means "to roast over coals." The amount of olive oil is generous, with extra-virgin olive oil being preferred, and the bread is often sprinkled with salt and pepper before grilling.
