Equipment

  • oven
  • Mixing bowl
  • pizza cutter
  • parchment paper

Ingredients
  

Breadsticks

  • 12 oz Frozen chopped spinach thawed and squeezed dry
  • 6 oz cream cheese softened
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tube refrigerated pizza crust 13.8 oz

Butter Topping

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder or garlic salt

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a bowl, beat together the spinach and cream cheese. Add garlic, salt, onion powder, chili powder, pepper, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese. Beat until creamy.
  • Unroll the pizza crust onto a sheet of parchment paper. Use a pizza cutter to cut it into one larger triangle and two smaller triangles.
  • Move the smaller triangles to a second sheet of parchment paper. Spread the spinach dip across the second triangle. Flip the first triangle over on top.
  • Cut from near the center out to the side every inch or so, leaving about an inch intact in the center to create slices.
  • Twist each 'slice' upwards, twisting halfway at the top and two or three full twists at the bottom.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown on top and cooked through.
  • Melt butter and stir in garlic salt and seasoning, then brush over breadsticks, and serve warm.
