Best Ever Cheesy Garlic Bread – Pegasus Garlic Bread

May 19, 2014 · 34 Comments

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Best Ever Cheesy Garlic Bread

This is, hands down, the best ever cheesy garlic bread. Crunchy, crusty, bread, garlic, ooey-gooey cheese….then topped with feta and sunflower seeds. Did she just say sunflower seeds? Why yes, yes I did!

I had been hearing about ‘the best garlic bread from this place outside Seattle’ for the longest time from my in-laws. So when my husband and I took a vacation to Seattle this past fall there was no option but to go, and I was definitely not disappointed. Side note-this vacation I speak of is the same one where we went to Portland, I spoke about it in my post when I made Cilantro, Lime & Wine Pesto Mac n Cheese and spoke about Oregon Wine Country….clearly, our vacation really inspired me food wise!

The restaurant that inspired this recipe is called Pegasus Pizza on Alki Beach. Pegasus Pizza is located directly on Alki Beach (a gorgeous beach that even has a mini replica of the Statute of Liberty).

Ok, so you see me shoveling the garlic bread in my face? haha, it was SO good. I’ve been thinking about it ever since! It is the most unique garlic bread in that it is topped with Feta and Sunflower Seeds…the crunch and saltiness and flavor combination is so delicious, you really need to try it!

    Wow, sunflower seeds on a garlic bread?! I can see how the combination would work great. My mom adds sunflower oil to a lot of her dishes and I totally love the flavor. Yum

      I’ve never had sunflower oil, I’ll definitely need to be on the lookout for that! And just the thought of the toasted sunflower seeds on the garlic bread is making me want some right now!

    This sounds like a recipe for me. Feta, mozzarella and garlic are my friends. 🙂 I would probably try it with pine nuts on top.. 🙂

Here are my November 5 star books: Mrs Nash’s A Here are my November 5 star books:
Mrs Nash’s Ashes by @sarahadlerwrites  I did not want this lovely book to end! The characters had such great chemistry and it was overall such a good romance.”A starry-eyed romantic, a cynical writer, and (the ashes of) an elderly woman take the road trip of a lifetime that just might upend everything they believe about true love.”
Will They Or Won’t They by @avawilderwrites Such a cute story and I loved the ending, was not expecting it to end the way it did with the little twist. “Onscreen, they’re in love. Offscreen, they can’t stand each other. From the author of How to Fake It in Hollywood comes “a sexy lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers romance that smolders then bursts into flames”
Flying Solo @lindaholmes97  @justjuliawhelan narrates - she’s my fave narrator. This was such a fun audiobook, there were parts that had me loling and it was a unique love story, I thoroughly enjoyed it. “A woman returns to her small Maine hometown, uncovering family secrets that take her on a journey of self-discovery and new love, in this warm and charming novel from the NYT bestselling author of Evvie Drake Starts Over.”
The Lost Bookshop @evie.gaughan This was such a lovely cozy read with a touch of whimsey, I really loved the story. “The Keeper of Stories meets The Lost Apothecary in this evocative and charming novel full of mystery and secrets. ‘The thing about books,’ she said ‘is that they help you to imagine a life bigger and better than you could ever dream of.’ On a quiet street in Dublin, a lost bookshop is waiting to be found…”
