The culinary gods must have been on my side when I went grocery shopping the other day. All the ingredients that I need to try making a version of Blooming Garlic Bread was on sale. The round crusty bread, mozarella cheese and bacon were all on special sale so I happy filled my basket with all the ingredients for spaghetti night.
