While cleaning out my pantry (ugh, what a chore) I found some wooden bbq skewers that have been replaced by metal ones. What do I do with these? The little wheels in my mind started grinding and I came up with this idea for my Halloween Boo-ffet.
Ingredients:
1 (11 ounce) can refrigerated breadstick dough
1/4 teaspoon butter, melted
herbs or spices, to taste
pimiento, for tongue
sliced black olives, for eyes
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Spray each skewer with non-stick spray.
3. Wrap each breadstick around the skewer and flatten out the end a bit.
4. You will have to work with the dough a bit, but place 2 black olives on the top for eyes and a small piece of pimiento in the mouth for the tongue.
5. Bake on a prepared baking sheet for approximately 20 minutes or until the breadsticks are golden brown.
6. Remove from the oven and immediately brush with the melted butter and sprinkle with the herbs/spices of your choice. Let cool.
7. If desired, slide the skewers off the bread or serve with the skewers in for easy handling.
8. NOTE: If desired, make the dough from scratch and use food coloring to make them green or knead in paste food coloring, using gloves to shield your hands from getting stained.
