Garlic knots are perfect to eat alone or dipping into the marinara sauce.
Like I mentioned before, garlic is one of my favorite seasonings. I use garlic almost on everything I cook.
Garlic knots are a beautiful twist of regular breadsticks. My kids love to eat in the morning along with fried eggs as well. The aroma of garlic when you re-toast them in the oven, it’s definitely making our morning.
These are also a fun bite-size appetizer to serve along with pizza, salad or soup.
