Just when you thought garlic bread couldn't possibly get any better, Trader Joe's has unveiled new Garlic Gondolas.
If you're familiar with the gondolas of Venice, you'll know that these are distinct rowing boats with a long, flat bottom and raised ends. Trader Joe's new Garlic Gondolas draws inspiration from the iconic Venetian boats by taking hearty, rustic pizza dough and forming it into a gondola-like shape. Each of these bread boats is then filled with a buttery garlic sauce and topped with grated cheese. The whole thing is then stone oven-baked until crisp and flash-frozen. This means that all you need to do is pull the Garlic Gondolas from your own freezer and crisp them up in the oven for about 10 minutes.
