Ingredients

Scale

Garlic Bread Nachos Ingredients

  • 1 loaf garlic bread, cubed
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon white truffle oil


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the nachos.
  2. Prepare garlic bread: Slice the loaf of garlic bread into bite-sized cubes and arrange them evenly on a sheet pan to provide a sturdy base for the toppings.
  3. Add cheeses: Evenly sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheeses over the cubed garlic bread for a rich, cheesy layer.
  4. Top with ricotta and seasoning: Place dollops of ricotta cheese around the garlic bread cubes, and sprinkle the Italian seasoning over all the cheeses to infuse bright herbaceous flavors.
  5. Bake: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes until the cheeses are melting and bubbly.
  6. Broil for finishing: Switch your oven to the broil setting on low, and broil the nachos for an additional 2 minutes to brown the cheese lightly and add a golden crust.
  7. Add finishing touch: Remove the nachos from the oven and immediately drizzle with white truffle oil to add an earthy, aromatic richness that elevates the dish.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, you can toast the garlic bread cubes before adding the cheese toppings.
  • Feel free to add extra toppings like sliced olives, diced tomatoes, or chopped fresh basil for variation.
  • Use fresh Italian seasoning or a blend of dried basil, oregano, thyme, and rosemary for the best flavor.
  • White truffle oil is optional but recommended for its unique aroma and taste.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the melty cheeses at their best.
