Steps:

• Cut the French bread into about 1 x 1 x 1/2 inch slices (I cut them diagonally).

• Lightly butter the bottom of a large cookie/baking sheet with butter-garlic mixture.
• Add in the parsley to the melted butter and mix well.
• Using a pastry brush, coat each side of the bread slices with the melted butter mixture.
• Place on cookie sheet.
• Sprinkle one side (can sprinkle both sides if desired) with grated Parmesan cheese.
• Bake for about 5-6 minutes (if using a convection bake there is no need to turn over).
• Turn over the slices and bake about 4-5 minutes more, depending on how crispy you like them.
• Best served warm.
