In America today, food choices are abundant. Unfortunately, many choices are not healthy for our bodies to consume on a regular basis. Foods like many processed pre-packaged meals, fast food, white sugar laden foods are just a few. There are so many additives and preservatives out there as well. I have chosen to make a concerted effort to buy and cook nutritious foods for my family. This blog reflects healthy recipes and information on healthy eating. I try to reflect a balanced diet where healthy eating is the norm.
Whole Grain Garlic Bread
Garlic bread and spaghetti just naturally go together. But I don't like to buy the store-bought garlic bread varieties because in my opinion, there's just not much nutrition to them. And typically, there's a lot of "extras" in the ingredient list that I don't know what they are. I make whole grain homemade bread each week instead of using store-bought bread. I took some of the homemade whole grain bread and spread a thin layer of butter on it. I don't use margarine. I use real butter - just less of it. Sprinkle a little bit of salt on the bread. Then sprinkle a good little bit of garlic powder on top. Broil in the oven or toaster oven until it's browned like you like. This is a very tasty, healthy alternative to the processed store-bought bread.
