Ingredients
- 1 medium loaf Italian bread
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/8 teaspoon onion salt
Directions
Preheat oven to 400ºF.
Cut bread to but not through the bottom into 12 slices. Place on a baking sheet.
Combine Parmesan, mayonnaise, basil, garlic powder, oregano and onion salt in a small bowl and mix well.
Spread the mixture between slices and over top of bread.
Bake bread until golden, about 12 minutes.
Secret Tip
Turn this into a quick hors d'oeuvre by adding 1/2 cup chopped cooked shrimp to the mayonnaise mixture before spreading it on the bread. Add a few drops of lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce for extra flavor.
