Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Split loaf of bread lengthwise.

In a small bowl, blend cheese, garlic, parsley and salt; reserve.

Brush cut sides of loaf with butter; sprinkle generously with reserved cheese mixture. Place bread on a baking sheet; bake 5 to 7 minutes, or until golden brown.

Remove from oven; cut into desired size pieces.
