Brown the Meat

  • Stir in minced garlic, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard. Let it simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Toast the Bread

  • While the mixture simmers, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place Texas toast on a baking sheet and toast for 5-7 minutes until golden.
