Who doesn’t love Olive Garden’s breadsticks…right?! I love making these at home with my other copycat Olive Garden recipes. These breadsticks taste just like the real thing but what I love the most is that you can cook them a little less to make them softer. I love soft bread but sometimes Olive Garden overcooks them so I like to control that myself. I promise, you will love these if you try them. Enjoy!
