Cheese and garlic bread sticks
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Sometimes after cooking there are small pieces of various cheese types left over. I often forget about them and end up throwing them away. Here's a solution—make cheesy breadsticks using all your leftover cheese! This garlic bread can replace pizza or other baked goods. Serve the breadsticks with sauce, especially delicious with tomato sauce. The baking is done. Serve at the table.
