Recipe: Sabra Houmous Garlic Bread

We love garlic bread. Who doesn't, right? It's the perfect accompaniment to any alfresco meal and can be shared among friends, or scoffed just as easily on your own. Here's a special garlic bread recipe that incorporates another of our favs, Sabra Houmous! 

What you need:

- 1 loaf of French bread
- 1 pot of Sabra Garlic & Red Pepper houmous
- 1-2 tablespoons chopped garlic
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- Garlic flavour Clover Cooking Spray

What you do:

- Fire up the grill!

- Slice French bread in half length wise, spay generously with Clover Cooking Spray and set aside

- Mix Sabra Garlic & Red Pepper houmous with the chopped garlic

- Spread houmous on French bread halves and place on tin foil

- Sprinkle with parmesan cheese

- Place on or under grill for 2- 5 minutes until the edges are crispy and the cheese is browning

- Cut each half of the bread into quarters and serve!
