Keep The Vampires Away With This Fully-Loaded Garlic Bread
I love garlic bread. Unashamedly. A few of my friends and I even went on a garlic bread-style 'pub' crawl (exchange alcohol for many types of garlic bread). And yes, it was amazing.
This, though, is the mother of all garlic bread. Packed full of garlic, caramelised red onion, and fresh herbs, all other garlic breads bow down to this loaf.
To top it all off, garlic is great for your health. While your breath might not thank you, your immune system definitely will.
