- 5 cheese garlic bread
- Fiesta blend cheese.
- Lean ground beef. You can substitute ground turkey or chicken.
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
- Salt and black pepper
- Marinara sauce. Use your favorite or what you have on hand.
Method for making Texas Toast Casserole
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place the garlic bread in a single layer on the bottom of your casserole dish. Bake for 5 to 8 minutes or just until the bread is golden on the edges. Don’t skip this part, it dries out the bread just enough so that it won’t get soggy after you add the meat sauce.
- Sprinkle half of the cheese over the bread. This is another barrier to prevent the bread from getting soggy.
- While the bread bakes, place a large skillet or
Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and seasonings, crumbling the meat as it cooks, until completely browned. Drain the meat well and return it to the skillet. - Add the marinara sauce to the skillet and stir to combine. Bring the meat sauce to a boil, reduce the heat to medium low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Pour the meat sauce over the bread and spread evenly. Top with the remaining cheese.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the edges are bubbling.
Substitutions

I had this tonight for supper, made exactly as stated in the recipe. It tasted good but was hard to cut the garlic bread. I had steak knives and still was hard to cut, I had to pull the bread apart. Will not make again.
