10 Dinners to Make with Garlic Bread

I am totally in my bread era, and I absolutely adore garlic bread. It is the perfect complement to a pasta dish, soup, or anything with gravy!

Now I am all about garlic bread being a dinner side kick, but what if garlic bread could be the star for once? Here is where these meals that start with garlic bread come in!

I typically make these with the large Texas Toast varieties of Garlic Bread, but these can easily be made with a loaf of French bread that you add garlic and butter too!

What to make with Frozen Garlic Bread?

1. Sloppy Jow Garlic Bread

We love to make these like an open face sandwich! Probably just as sloppy as a traditional sandwich but so yummy with the garlic flavor.

2. Cheesy Chicken Parmesan Sandwich

This is another one we typically do open faced style, but if you love garlic bread, you can easily make this a closed sandwich too!

3. Garlic Bread Pizza

This one of my kid’s favorite because they can “design” their own pizza by picking the toppings. Plus we do this a lot for lunches and just use the air fryer for a super quick meal!

4. Garlic Toast Turkey Melt

This is one of those when you really want a grilled cheese, garlic bread, and a turkey sandwich all that the same time! We have done these in the George Foreman and it is so crispy and yummy.

5. Garlic Bread BLT

This is another house favorite, and it’s so hard to go wrong with this. Personally, I love to add some avocado slices as well!

6. Open Faced Tuna Melt

I was convinced I didn’t like tuna for a long time, but I adore tuna melts! Add in garlic bread and it’s really hard not to want to 12 of them in one sitting.

7. Philly Cheesesteak

This is such a great Friday night dinner or just a fun lunch to have on the weekend. You can literally just make a few a time or make a whole bunch and feed a crowd!

8. Garlic Bread Caprese Toast

This is my fancy garlic bread with a hunt of bruschetta! So delicious and I always feel the urge to eat it with my pinky up! 🙂

9. Garlic Bread Taco Boats

Typically bread and tacos don’t really mix, but these are absolutely amazing. They are also a great way to use up leftover taco seasoned ground meat!

10. Texas Toast French Dip

Once of the great things about Texas toast is that it soaks up so much yummy juice and gravy, so it is the perfect addition to a French Dip Sandwich!
