every one today is an extremely busy morning because today I'm going to tell
my garden I'm really excited because finally spring is here and I'm able to
tell my garden because tomorrow I want to plant those potatoes so what are we
gonna have to eat today what we're gonna have is I had a whole bunch a leftover
sloppy joe I made 10 pounds of sloppy joe because I had my extended family for
a meal so what am I gonna do with the leftover sloppy joe
we're tired of eating it that way I'm gonna turn that into spaghetti so we're
gonna have spaghetti now spaghetti is something everybody makes and I'm not
gonna bore you with a ten-minute video on making spaghetti but I'm gonna share
with you what I'm making with the spaghetti and that is pizza hutt
breadsticks aim is actually Pizza Hut breadsticks
it is a copycat recipe it is our family favorite and we're using the bread
machine what to do is mix this up and while it's rising I'm going outside and
I'm gonna tell my garden so let's show you how I make it
simple it's basically your pizza crust recipe but it actually is Pizza Hut
breadsticks
I think it calls for as one and a half cups of warm water now you don't have to
have a bread machine to make this you can make it any way you wish so it's one
of they have cups of warm water to that we're gonna add 1 tablespoon of yeast
now I can keep my yeast for a long time a year or even longer if I store it in
the freezer one tablespoon of yeast 1 tablespoon of white sugar and one and a
1/4 teaspoons of salt I only use one teaspoon three tablespoons of oil and I
always use olive oil
and then four cups of flour and that's all we need to do to have the
breadsticks then we're going to have a butter mixture when the bread sticks
have totally been risen so it's going to be four cups of flour so I have 1/2 cup
here
all right turn the machine on and we're gonna set it to the DOS setting all
thread machines have a DOS setting only
so before I go outside I'm going to make sure that this is going to be
incorporated correctly and in a few moments I'll get back to show you what
it looks like when it starts to form the ball all right see how nice it's
starting to form let me see if I can tilt it for you so now we have to do is
close the lid in an hour and a half it will be finished and now I'm gonna go
out and I get to work on my garden so our dough is finished rising and now
we're gonna work on the spaghetti sauce
so I have one can of my homemade spaghetti sauce so we're going to only
use one quart because we want to make it enough for two people for one meal now
I'm going to go ahead and get some of my sloppy joe and we're gonna add that go
ahead and add about a pound of my sloppy joe to my spaghetti sauce the rest of
the sloppy joe I think I'm going to go ahead and freeze it and we can use this
with rice with all kinds of meals it's just going to give it a little more of a
sweeter flavor but it's perfect and making it and lasagna and everything
like that we're gonna put this on the stove on low and we're gonna get working
on our breadsticks and get working on the noodles all right so it calls for a
half a cup of butter 3 tablespoons of olive oil and three tablespoons of
Parmesan cheese so what we do is we're gonna put in here you Mike and butter is
amazing I just love this canned butter so we're going to go ahead we're gonna
have three tablespoons of the butter now you don't really have to measure that
much that's lower three now we're gonna have three tablespoons of olive oil and
two tablespoons of parsley and a teaspoon of garlic powder so this is my
homegrown parsley that I have dehydrated so we're just going to go three
tablespoons it doesn't matter if you're a little bit over that's good and then
the garlic powder is my very own garlic powder dehydrated garlic and I'm just
gonna go with a half a tablespoon cuz I like it like that
alright and that's all it is to it now this is what we're gonna brush it on our
garlic bread so I'll get back to in a minute and I'll
show you what it looks like to add Parmesan cheese I have a little bit of
Parmesan cheese left so we're gonna put that in there but it also calls for
three tablespoons of Parmesan cheese so the ingredients to brush on the
breadsticks are once again 1/2 cup of butter 3 tablespoons of olive oil 3
tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 2
tablespoons of parsley this is what our dough looks like now we're going to go
ahead flour onto our work surface we're gonna take the dough out
now your dough might be slightly sticky so just put a little bit we don't wanna
have too much flour cuz flour on bread dough or any kind of dough tends to make
it more dense and we want it a nice light and fluffy so we're gonna go ahead
and we're gonna roll this out videos we're gonna cut it in here and we're
gonna work with half at a time actually I'm gonna go right on the cookie sheet
and lo it that way now some people like them thick some people like them thin it
all depends on how you like it I roll it to about fairly thick because I like a
nice chewy breadstick I don't like a hard breadstick so there we go looks
perfect now we're gonna go ahead and we're going to brush on our garlic
powder and olive oil and Parmesan cheese topping yeah mmmm oh it smells so good
and this is actually far better than any restaurant that you're gonna find this
is just really really good all right we're gonna take our pizza cutter and
we're just going to cut it in the size that you like if you have children you
can cut them smaller but I just cut them like this and there we go we have one
try finished of our pizza hutt garlic breadsticks this is great with a salad
or a soup you don't have to have it with spaghetti now we'll go ahead and we'll
make our next batch spray our pan a little bit go ahead and roll the other
one
go ahead and put this on I try to use everything up
so good this would be a great pizza crust recipe as well so we're gonna go
with longer ones on this one I'm just gonna go in like that these also are
great heated up the next day there you go and I'll show you what everything
looks like when it's finished
just so we don't waste anything I have a little bit of this left I'm gonna go
ahead and I'm gonna put this in with the noodles when I cook them all right
everyone the breadsticks are finished and see how beautiful they look so we
have a bread stick and we have our spaghetti yeah yeah after a long day at
work this is a good meal it's cheap and you can't beat homemade take care
everyone we'll see you guys tomorrow
