I don’t care how healthy I eat, every time I go to a restaurant and they serve bread for an appetizer you know I’m gonna grab a piece! Especially if its a italian restaurant and they have garlic bread! I’ve been loving making grain-free bread, so I totally wanted to go savory and make some sort of dinner rolls! They are semi-garlicky, semi-basily and a whole lotta flavorful! Add some cheese if you desire, and make these for your next dinner party! Free of grain and guilt!
