Garlic cheese toast is a simple, yet delightful appetizer or snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is made with just a few ingredients, including bread, butter, garlic, and cheese. The bread is typically toasted until it is golden brown and crispy, and then it is slathered with a mixture of butter, garlic, and cheese. The toast is then baked in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Garlic cheese toast can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as marinara sauce or ranch dressing. It is also a popular side dish for soups and salads.

INSPIRATIONAL GOAT'S CHEESE ON GARLIC CIABATTA TOAST
Toasted goat's cheese on toast that has been spread with garlic paste.......and then served on mixed salad leaves - brilliant! I am hooked on Nigel Slater's new programme, "Simple Suppers", where he prepares and cooks food just the way I like it...........fresh, seasonal, unpretentious, flexible and hearty. This is one of Nigel's "Inspirational" recipes that was shown on his first programme. In the absence of ciabatta bread, I would be inclined to use any rustic bread........with lots of body! (Recipe from NIgel Slater's Simple Suppers and the Digin site.)

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
- Arrange the whole heads of garlic snugly in an oven dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season with thyme, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Roast in the oven for about an hour, or until the garlic is softened.
- Squeeze the soft garlic out of its skins into a small dish or bowl. Add enough olive oil to make a thick paste and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Slice some goats' cheese thinly. Cut the ciabatta in half and place under the grill to toast then spread the slices with the garlic paste. Place the goats' cheese on top and pop under the grill again until the cheese has melted.
- Serve with on a bed of fresh, crisp lettuce leaves. I often add a couple of slices of prosciutto, too.

Steps:
- 1. SPREAD: Combine cottage cheese, blue cheese, garlic, and lemon juice in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth. Add green onions, basil, and almonds. Blend until mixed but still lumpy and not smooth. Pour dip into serving bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- 2. BREAD: Spread melted butter on both sides of bread slices. Lay on a non-stick cooking sheet. Stir together garlic powder and salt. Sprinkle on one side of buttered bread. Turn on broiler and allow it to heat up a moment. Broil bread about 6-8 inches from heating element for 30-45 minutes per side. Serve warm with Blue Cheese Herb Spread on the side.
Tips and Conclusion
Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, slice your baguette or bread into equal-sized pieces.
- Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly on each slice of bread. This will help the flavors meld and prevent the bread from becoming dry.
- For a crispier crust, toast the bread slices in a preheated oven or toaster oven.
- If you prefer a softer crust, toast the bread slices in a skillet over medium heat.
- Top the toasted bread slices with a generous amount of grated cheese. You can use any type of cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan.
- Broil the bread slices until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on the bread to prevent it from burning.
- Serve the garlic cheese toast immediately, while it's hot and gooey.
