  • Yield: 2 sandwiches 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp butter, softened
  • 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried parsley
  • 4 slices of bread
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend

Instructions

  1. Mix softened butter, garlic powder, and parsley in a small bowl.
  2. Spread garlic butter evenly on one side of each bread slice.
