Make-Ahead Garlic Toast

I love this because I always have leftover bread and it goes to waste most of the time. The best part is that you can pull out as many pieces as you want and bake them straight from the freezer!

Original recipe makes 18 toasts

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 (1 pound) loaf Italian bread, cut into 1 inch slices
