Pull out whatever day old bread you have. Can be sandwich bread, hamburger or hot dog buns, biscuits, etc. Put butter, garlic and basil in a small bowl. Microwave until melted (20-30 seconds). If you like your garlic more cooked to lessen the bite, add 10-30 seconds. Spread garlic butter onto bread. Put in toaster oven on 'toast' directly on the rack. If the top isn't quite brown enough, broil for another minute or so. If you don't have a toaster oven, use your big oven, preheat the oven to 350°F. Also, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil to catch drips. Prepare as directed, but adjust cooking time accordingly (about 15 min). If the rack bars are too widely spaced to hold the bread, put the bread on your broiling pan or a smaller rack from a roasting pan.
