Gorgonzola Garlic Bread

This Gorgonzola garlic bread recipe was a delicious change from our usual mozzarella cheese bread. I made this to go with some grilled BBQ shrimp, so we could sop up the sauce. They made a fantastic combination. We really liked the tang of the Gorgonzola. And although the recipe calls for making this bread in the oven, you can use the grill just as easily, specially if you already have it fired up!

Gorgonzola Garlic Bread

Not Your Usual Garlic Bread. Better.

Gorgonzola garlic bread is easy to make, but don’t forget the Parmesan cheese like I did the first time I made it. The Parmesan adds such a nice flavor with the Gorgonzola. You could substitute Asiago cheese and even add some red pepper flakes for a little heat. If that’s your thing.

This is a great bread to serve instead of your usual garlic bread. It’s amazing how just a few simple different ingredients can make for a much better bread experience!
