About Piece of garlic bread
Garlic bread is a popular side dish made from slices of bread, typically French or Italian, that are slathered with a mixture of butter, garlic, and herbs, and often topped with cheese before being baked or toasted. Originating from Italian-American cuisine, garlic bread is a flavorful adaptation of traditional bruschetta. It contains carbohydrates from the bread and fats from the butter or oil used, making it energy-dense. Garlic, a key ingredient, is rich in antioxidants and may offer health benefits such as improved heart health and boosted immunity. However, the added butter, cheese, and refined bread contribute to higher levels of saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation. Pairing garlic bread with a salad or lean protein can balance its indulgent characteristics while enhancing its role as a satisfying accompaniment to meals like pasta or soup.
