Mrs Lesley struck gold again! She passed along this tasty recipe, which we are using this Friday for one of our monthly kid activities at church.
I wanted to try it out to be sure I knew what I was doing
so I made them for dinner tonight. After just trying one, I declare bread-sticks, heaven on earth.
Mrs Lesley's Bread-Sticks
1 c. plus 1 TBSP warm water
1 pkg. yeast
1 tsp. sugar
2 TBSP shortening (I use butter)
1/2 tsp salt
3 cups flour
Dissolve the yeast in warm water. Mix dry ingredients and cut in the shortening. Add yeast and mix into soft dough, rub dough with oil an let stand in warm place for 20 min. Roll into fingers, Rub baking sheet with olive oil and place bread on tray.
Sprinkle with a mixture of coarse salt and garlic powder.
Bake at 425 for about 15 minutes.

I laughed to see "Mrs. Lesley's Breadsticks"--here is the rest of the story: she got the breadsticks recipe from me;I got it from my best friend from grade school days. My friend has 6 kids and a daycare business.She would make this dough for pizzas, letting each child make a mini pizza with their own chosen toppings.The leftover dough made breadsticks.I've never made pizza dough once! But have had fun with the breadsticks, even subbing ww flour, topping with poppy seeds, sesame seeds. On it goes. :)
