Remember Pizza Hut’s BOOK IT program where they talked students into reading as a activity in return for free pizza? If there’s one way to get kids into reading, it’s pizza. I’m totally serious. When I found out the more reading I did meant more pizza, I turned into a library monster. One of my life achievements is winning my city’s Winter Reading Contest. I received a picture in the newspaper with my gold medal in one hand, a book in another. Sounds pretty cool, right? Well it was because it meant pizza!
My parents would sometimes surprise me while I was in middle school by picking me up when school was over and taking me to Pizza Hut for dinner on Fridays. I was pretty pumped because this meant pizza and their bread sticks which I loved. Also, total highlight but one time they picked me up and surprised me with a black velvet hat with a red plaid flower on it, just like my hero Blossom wore. Wasn’t she just the coolest?
So back to bread sticks. We are big pizza eaters in this house and always love a few bread sticks on the side to dip in additional marinara sauce. Buying frozen bread sticks is quick, but one night I was craving home made bread sticks so I made these. If you have any left over (good luck) they are equally delicious the following day.
