Garlic Butter

SUBMITTED BY: Denyse  PHOTO BY: Marcia_Marcia_Marcia 

"Sometimes the basics are the best! I've used this simple recipe for years to make garlic bread, and any leftovers go great on barbequed steaks, pasta, rice or potatoes. You can use any butter or margarine you like. Also, fresh or minced garlic in a jar works well. Adjust the amount of garlic to your taste."
