Appetizers/ Breads/ Pizza

Garlic Breadsticks

When I was in elementary school, my best friend and I used to walk across the park at lunch time and go to the local pizza place. We would pool all our change together and get 1 order of breadsticks to share. It would cost us $2.13. My obsession love of breadsticks has continued to this day.

I had leftover dough from making pizza for supper a couple nights ago, and when an appetizer night with friends was planned, I instantly thought of breadsticks.

Is there anything better than pizza crust and garlic? I thought not.

Inspiration from 500 pizzas & flatbreads.
