| How To Make Walmart Garlic Bread |
The Hero: The Great Value French Bread
Forget fancy names like "artisan sourdough." We're going straight for the bold, beautiful Great Value French Bread. This bad boy is long, it's sturdy, and it's got the perfect amount of chew for our garlicky transformation.
QuickTip: Slow down when you hit numbers or data.
Pro-Tip: Feeling fancy? Grab the pre-sliced option. Less chopping, more time for admiring your grocery store prowess.
Reminder: Short breaks can improve focus.
The Spice of Life: The Garlic Butter Situation
Now, this is where things get interesting. Walmart offers a treasure trove of garlic butter possibilities. Here are a few of our favorites:
Tip: Read carefully — skimming skips meaning.
- The Classic: Grab a tub of Great Value Garlic Butter. It's a reliable friend, perfect for those nights when you just want straight-up, delicious garlic bread.
- The Herbivore's Dream: Channel your inner gardener with the Great Value Garlic & Herb Butter. Parsley, chives, and a hint of rosemary will have your taste buds doing a happy dance.
- Spice Up Your Life: Feeling adventurous? Look for the Great Value Sriracha Garlic Butter. Sweet heat and a garlicky punch - this is not for the faint of heart (or stomach).
Remember: Whichever garlic butter you choose, make sure it's nice and soft. If it's rock-solid, give it a little zap in the microwave (watch closely, melty butter is a fire hazard, and nobody wants a smoky garlic bread situation).

The Grand Assembly: Bringing it all Together
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This is hotter than you might think, but trust us, it's what gets those glorious golden edges.
- Slice your French bread in half, lengthwise. Unless you went for the pre-sliced option, then pat yourself on the back for your excellent planning skills.
- Spread that garlic butter on like there's no tomorrow. Get in between those cracks, don't be shy! If you're feeling extra cheesy, sprinkle on some shredded Parmesan cheese (Walmart has that too, because Walmart has everything).
- Lay those beautiful buttered halves on a baking sheet. Make sure they have enough space to breathe, you don't want any garlic bread cuddle puddles (tempting as they may be).
The Moment of Truth: Baking to Perfection
Now comes the hardest part: waiting. But fret not, because that heavenly garlicky aroma will soon fill your kitchen, a symphony for your nose.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy. If you like your bread softer, take it out a couple of minutes early.
- Keep an eye on it! We don't want any burnt offerings here.
The Glorious Finale: Devouring Your Masterpiece
Once those golden beauties are out of the oven, take a moment to appreciate your creation. You've conquered the aisles of Walmart and emerged victorious, with garlicky spoils in hand. Now, grab a plate, slice that bread, and savor every delicious bite.
Congratulations, you garlic bread champion! You've just proven that gourmet taste doesn't have to come with a gourmet price tag. Now, go forth and spread the garlicky goodness (and maybe share a slice or two with your fellow Walmart warriors).
