I ate a lot of spaghetti growing up and, because of this, I have eaten a lot of garlic bread. My favorite is the garlic French bread but alas, I will eat any bread with garlic and butter.
My love for anything bread is well known, but this isn’t about my love for just bread, but rather my love for garlic bread. There are two options available: frozen garlic bread and homemade garlic bread. They cook at roughly the same time and temperature, so availability and prep time could be your deciding factors.
