Quick and Easy Italian Garlic Breadsticks
1 loaf frozen bread, thawed
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/4 cup cornmeal
Italian seasoning
Grated Mozzarella cheese
Grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Flour a work surface and roll out the thawed bread dough to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Using a sharp knife, cut out 1 inch wide strips of the dough, then cut into even lengths, about 3 to 4 inches each.
Pour melted butter and garlic salt into a shallow bowl. Spread a layer of cornmeal onto a plate.
Dip each dough strip into the butter-garlic, then into the cornmeal, then place onto a baking sheet.
Continue until all dough strips are on baking sheet, then sprinkle Italian seasoning, Mozzarella and Parmesan cheese in a thin layer over the top of all the breadsticks.
Bake for 14 to 18 minutes or until breadsticks are golden brown.
Remove from oven, serve warm and enjoy!
