- 1/3c fresh parmesan, grated
- 1t dried parsley

Instructions
Preheat oven to 400.
Using a bread knife, slice the loaf in half down the center.
In a bowl, mix butter (butter should be soft enough to stir. If not, microwave for 5-10 seconds. It should be loose enough to stir/spread, but not completely melted), olive oil, garlic, parmesan, parsley, and salt until combined. Spread mixture evenly onto two half loaves.
