Garbage bread is easy to reheat in the oven or toaster for a crisp crust. You can also freeze slices and reheat straight from the freezer for busy days.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"paragraph-13\" class=\"txt-xxl\">Ingredient Substitutions<\/h2>\n<p>You can swap ground beef for mild Italian sausage or even ground turkey for a lighter bite. Not a fan of bacon Try crumbled chorizo or smoked sausage. The cheese is flexible too mozzarella or Monterey Jack work well if you do not have cheddar or Velveeta.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"paragraph-15\" class=\"txt-xxl\">Serving Suggestions<\/h2>\n<p>Slice garbage bread thick and serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping. It pairs well with a crisp salad for balance.
