Description

These Savory Open-Face Garlic Toasts are a deliciously easy lunch or snack, featuring crispy garlic-rubbed bread topped with juicy seasoned beef, gooey melted mozzarella, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley. Perfectly satisfying and ready in minutes—every bite is a flavor-packed delight!


Ingredients

• Slices of bread (your choice)
• 1 garlic clove (for rubbing toast)
• 1/2 lb ground beef
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Favorite spices (e.g., paprika, cumin, chili flakes)
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

  • Prepare Garlic Toasts: Toast slices of bread until golden and crispy. While still warm, rub one side with a cut garlic clove.

  • Cook the Beef: Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Season with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. Cook until fully done.

  • Melt the Cheese: Place beef on garlic toasts, top with shredded mozzarella. Broil in oven until cheese is melted and bubbly.

  • Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped parsley on top. Serve warm.


Notes

  • Use sourdough, French bread, or ciabatta for extra texture.

  • Add sautéed onions or bell peppers for more flavor.

  • Substitute beef with turkey or plant-based meat for a different twist.
