  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese Enhances overall flavor and adds a delightful texture.
For the Sauce

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Slice the French or Italian loaf horizontally to create a top and bottom half. Use a fork to create pockets within the bread.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the garlic butter, ricotta cheese, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  4. Spoon the cheese mixture into the pockets of the sliced bread, then drizzle the marinara sauce on top.
  5. Wrap the stuffed loaf in aluminum foil and place it on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
  6. Unwrap the loaf and return it to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes to crisp the crust.
  7. Let the Garlic Lasagna Bread cool for about 5 minutes before slicing.
  8. Slice the bread into thick pieces and serve warm.
