It comes ready to be heated in an oven or toaster oven for a quick side dish or appetizer.

To prepare, preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the packaging, usually around 400°F (200°C). Arrange the frozen garlic bread slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for the recommended time, typically 8-12 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and heated through. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning. For a crispier texture, you can broil it for the last minute.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to regular garlic bread, Texas toast is characterized by its thicker slices, which provide a more substantial bite and a chewier texture. The pre-toasted nature means it heats up faster and often achieves a more consistent crispness throughout.
