1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil.

   Slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise and place both halves cut-side up on the baking sheet.

3. 3

   In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, garlic powder, and salt until smooth.

4. 4

   Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut surfaces of both bread halves, reaching all the way to the edges.

5. 5

   In a separate bowl, toss the mozzarella, parmesan, and cheddar cheeses together to mix.

6. 6

   Generously top the buttered bread with the mixed cheeses and sprinkle with red pepper flakes if desired.

7. 7

   Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

8. 8

   Turn the broiler on for the last 1-2 minutes to achieve golden-brown spots on the cheese, then slice and serve immediately.
