Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine tomato, basil, and red onion in a small mixing bowl; stir well. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
• Arrange bread on a baking sheet. Place in oven, and bake until well toasted, approximately 5 minutes.
• Remove bread from oven, and transfer to a large serving platter. Let bread cool 3 to 5 minutes. Rub garlic into the top of each slice of toast; the toast should glisten with the garlic. Spoon the tomato mixture generously onto each slice, and serve.

Steps:

• Bruschetta:
• Grill or toast the bread under a broiler, on both sides, until golden. Brush with the oil and sprinkle with salt. Spread with the roasted garlic.

• Roasted Garlic:
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Rub off any loose papery skin from the garlic, and trim about a 1/2 inch off the top of each head, to expose the cloves. Set the garlic snugly in an ovenproof baking dish just large enough to hold them. Drizzle with the oil and season with the salt and pepper. Cover with foil and cook for about 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake until the heads are soft and the tops golden brown, another 30 minutes. Allow garlic to cool.
• Serve the garlic whole for a rustic garnish, or break the heads apart and squeeze the garlic out of skins to eat the whole clove. To store the garlic, place it in a container and cover with olive oil. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Use skinned roasted garlic to season mashed potatoes, in salad dressings, to flavor and thicken sauces, or on sauteed or roasted vegetables.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Separate the cloves of garlic from the heads and place in an ovenproof dish. Drizzle 1 ounce of olive oil over the unpeeled cloves and roast for 25 minutes until soft. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
• Quarter the tomatoes, remove the seeds, and dice. Finely chop the basil and oregano.
• Halve the baguette lengthwise and toast until golden. Peel the skin off of the garlic cloves. Mash the softened garlic and spread on toasted bread. Cut the baguette into diagonal pieces.
• Mix the diced tomatoes, chopped basil, oregano, salt, pepper, and another ounce of olive oil together. Spoon the tomato mixture evenly over the garlic baguette pieces. Top each piece with one slice of goat cheese and drizzle the remaining olive oil over the goat cheese and tomatoes.
• To serve, garnish with sprigs of fresh basil and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Using a serrated knife, cut the top 1/4 off the bulbs of garlic. Place the bulbs in a small baking dish. Drizzle with the oil, season with salt and pepper, and cover with foil. Bake until the garlic is tender when pierced with fork, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool a bit. Squeeze the base of the bulbs to extract as much of the garlic pulp from the skins as possible. Season the garlic, to taste, with salt and pepper, stir in the chopped parsley and chives, and reserve. Reserve the oil in the pan also. Toast the bread on both sides, either over an outdoor grill, under the broiler, or in a toaster, until golden. Cut each piece of toast in half. Rub 1 side of the toasted bread with the whole cloves of garlic. Brush the toast with the reserved oil, and then spread the garlic paste over it. Place the toasts on a platter. Garnish with sprigs of parsley, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine oil, basil, garlic, salt and pepper. Add tomatoes and toss gently. Sprinkle with cheese. Refrigerate at least 1 hour. , Bring to room temperature before serving. Cut bread into 24 slices; toast under broiler until lightly browned. Top with tomato mixture. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place bread flour in a bowl. Add salt and baking powder and give it a good whisk until evenly combined.
• Add in Greek yogurt gently, followed by garlic and green onions. Take a wooden spoon and slowly start mixing everything together. Keep mixing, stirring, and pressing until a shaggy dough forms.
• Transfer dough to a work surface and use your hands to press dough together. Knead for a few minutes until dough becomes elastic and a little bit sticky. Add a bit more flour as necessary but try to keep extra flour at an absolute minimum. Knead until dough is a little bit stretchy, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Wrap in plastic and allow to rest on the counter for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Take a bench scraper and cut into 6 equal pieces. Take 1 portion and roll into a ball. Place onto a generously floured surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out nice and thin, about 1/8 inch or less. It's ok if the naan is not a perfect circle. You will need extra flour for rolling out as the dough is sticky, but try to use as little as possible.
• Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Transfer dough circles into the hot dry skillet and cook until little bubbles form on the surface and the underside is lightly browned, about 1 minute. Flip naan over and cook for 1 more minute. Press down slightly with a spatula to increase the heat during cooking. Flip over twice more and cook for an additional 15 seconds per side, but make sure not to overcook to preserve the texture. Naan should still be flexible when you remove it from the skillet onto a plate.
• Cover with a kitchen towel to keep warm and moist while you cook the other naan breads. Stack all 6 naan breads on top of each other and keep covered with a kitchen towel.
• When you are finished cooking all 6 naan breads, unstack breads and brush the first naan bread on both sides with a little bit of melted butter. Stack second piece of naan on top and only brush the top side. Keep stacking and buttering all the naan breads. Fold each naan into a triangle and serve.

Steps:

• On a baking sheet toast the bread slices in batches under a preheated broiler about 3 inches from the heat for about 1 minute on each side, or until they are golden, transferring them as they are toasted to a work surface. Rub one side of each toast slice with the cut side of a garlic clove, brush it with some of the oil, and season it with salt.

Steps:

• Cut the garlic bread up and place on an oven tray. Turn the oven on 180 degrees and bake until they are slightly crunchy.
• Dice up the tomato and onion and place it in a bowl.
• Grate cheese on the smallest grate possible and place in the bowl with the tomato and red onion. Mix all the ingredients together.
• Take the garlic bread out of the oven and pour a little balsamic vinegar on it. Spoon desired amount of tomato/onion/cheese onto the garlic bread. Personal choice if you want a little more balsamic on top.
• Done.
