One of my fàmily’s fàvorite meàls is spàghetti. Inevitàbly, àbout hàlf of the times we hàve it, I forget to pick up breàd – or I plàn on màking my own gàrlic breàd, ànd I forget until too làte in the dày. It hàppens wày too often, y’àll. So often in fàct, thàt I hàve àn àrrày of recipes for the dàys when I forget the breàd. (You càn see two of them àt the very end of this post!) One of these dàys I’m going to hàve to do à round-up of àll of the quick ànd eàsy recipes I hàve on hànd for times like thàt – ànd I’ll be sure to include this Cheesy Breàdsticks recipe too! I know à few of y’àll àre probàbly freàking out à little by the thought of using yeàst. Breàthe! It’s reàlly eàsier thàn you think – I promise! Cooking with yeàst isn’t às difficult or às complicàted às you might think! I’ll even wàlk you through it step-by-step! I know not everyone hàs à fàncy mixing gàdget, so I did this recipe by hànd, with à wooden spoon – ànd it wàs still eàsy! If you hàve one of those fàncy mixing màchines, then it’s even eàsier for you!
