1/2 cup butter, softened |
2 tablespoons butter, softened |
3 teaspoons olive oil |
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese (or to taste) |
1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic |
1 teaspoon dried oregano (rubbed between fingers to release the flavor) |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt (i use seasoned salt) |
fresh ground black pepper (to taste) |
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or to taste) |
Directions:
1. Slice the bread into about 1 to 1-1/2-inch thick slices using a serrated knife.

3. Add in black pepper to taste.
4. Spread the mixture over the bread slices.
5. Place the slices onto a baking sheet.
