I was a “school secretary” for about 22 years and it was a sad day when they came and ripped the kitchens out and started serving junk food in plastic trays because it was “healthier”. Truth is, school food is big business and a money maker for school districts in CA. Probably. The same everywhere. The lunch ladies were always loved by everyone☺️

Oh, so true. Lunches have gottenbad here in Texas. My little nephew gets such junk. Fake meat burger patty on whole wheat bun, the soggiest and grossest "naked sweet potato fries" I've ever seen. And they are to choose a fruit...which is usually a few apple or orange slices OR they can choose a cheap fruit juice that's fill of high fructose corn syrup. Most choose that "juice". How is that a healthy meal? It's insane. You can go on the website and look at the lunch choices and none are much better. My sister packs his lunch. On top of being gross, they want almost $3/ day for that mess.

@@mDiago6200 This recipe is the old style. My mom was a lunch lady back in 1960. So no telling how long the lunch room used this same recipe. It was reduced from 20 Pounds of flour. School House Rolls: 2 cups scalded milk, cooled to baby bottle test. Add 2 pkgs yeast and let it proof. Melt 1 cup butter (1/2 for brushing, 1/2 for rolls). 4 1/2 cups flour, 2 tsp salt. Mix dry ingredients. Add the milky yeast and 1/2 cup butter. Stir till well mixed. Pour onto floured surface and knead just a few minutes. Add more flour as needed to make stiff dough. Pat out into your buttered pan and cut into the dough to the size rolls you want. (a 9 x 13 pan will give you 12 rolls). Cover with cloth and let rise 1 1/2 hours. Heat oven to 400* bake about 20 minutes. Brush remaining butter over the hot rolls. These are not as sweet as some. The only sugar comes from the milk. But you could add 1/3 cup of sugar or honey to the batter if you prefer. These are pretty simple and easy, only rising the one time and cutting them in the pan, but they will reward you with a time honored hot roll flavor.

If they had extra rolls, we could buy a roll for a nickle. I would always buy a roll with my ice cream money. When I went from elementary school to junior high, I was heart broken to find that the cafeteria did not make rolls. Thank you for this, I can’t wait to try this recipe.

I spent the last 3 months of 3rd grade, and the last 5 months of 4th grade in Abilene, Texas. The lunch ladies there made fresh rolls and I have never forgotten how wonderful they were. I was a picky kid, so most school cafeterias were a nightmare for me, but that Abilene school made up for all the others! ( 1963 and 64, so you can see what an impassion they made.)

Love watching our videos. I can smell those rolls cooking in the lunchroom from when I was a kid, back in the days when they actually served us real food. Much appreciation to the ladies in the lunch room!

School lunch rolls are the best! Can’t wait to try, I also had the best red velvet cake I’ve ever eaten in a school cafeteria. It was in a sheet pan and I have never had a cake that was that “velvety “...I could eat about five of those rolls and a piece of that cake right now! Yum you’ve made me so hungry!

As a kid, I got to meet the Lunch Ladies and the Custodians. My favorite Lunch Lady was Mrs. Eli. Always so kind and always willing to lend an ear and give advice when I needed it.

Enjoyed much. And yes, thank you to all the lunch ladies. My brother and I were fortunate to have school cafeteria lunches. We still reminisce over the hot rolls. I learned from my mother in law how to make hot rolls and the same pinch method. You are the only other person I’ve ever seen do it the way she taught me. It is hard on your hands with arthritis but doable when making small batches. Thank you

Hello Lori, I love to watch you, you bring back so much memories. I too am a lunch lady I worked in a school cafeteria in child nutrition for 23 yrs. with my sick days I had 25 years in when I retired in 2016. I hated to retire but because of some health issues I did. I loved my job. My school was from pre-k to 8th grade we feed over 1000 kids for lunch and for breakfast 300 to 400 kids. In the early 20's they moved 6,7,8 grades to the middle school. I was the baker, I fixed all from scratch the rolls, biscuits, cinnamon rolls, Moravian sugar cake, pizza crust. It was hard work, but I loved it. When I first started working the deliver guys would put up our groceries, and about 15 yrs before I retired we had to start putting up our own groceries. That was hard cause some of the boxes was 60 to 80 pounds. I have lost my school yeast roll recipe, an I would love if you would share yours with me. I think the one we had would make 150 to 200 rolls.Not sure now I have forgotten. I love to watch and love love your house and kitchen will continue to watch. Thanks Donna Taylor

We had it so good compared to kids now. So good. Those rolls, the smell ran right through our grade school, whetting our appetites each day. Lovely, fond memories. I bake them for my granddaughters today and they LOVE them with a touch of strawberry or marionberry jam. Nothing makes a house smell so good; not even bbq! In fact, when I sold real estate I used to buy that frozen Rhodes bread loaf dough. I’d not serve it, lol but I’d get it baking just before an open house to draw people in, and it sure did it’s job. :-) God bless you and thanks for the memories. We as kids never knew how hard our lunch ladies worked, but I do recall a sweaty brow or two during late spring!

I loved, loved, loved the lunch lady rolls! I'm also saving the lunch lady cinnamon rolls recipe. Those are great memories and I'm so glad to have the recipe. I'm so glad I was young during those times vs now. I don't agree that "progress" is always a good thing - much of the wholesome goodness of life is lost now. I'm very thankful for the lunch ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for sharing wonderful memories and protecting these recipes to pass down.

But when you lovely ladies made them yeast rolls. Everyone could smell them down the halls. And it made everyone so happy. You were greatly appreciated even though I'm sure you didn't get all the recognition you deserved. Thank you for all your hard work.

My great grandmother always had fried bread for us children to have between meals. And I carried that thur for my children and their friends. Every child thur their teens knew they had a place to go for food. I'm my life that has been one of the things I have done that has given me wonderful adults today. Who still has a place in their heart. It's a wonderful thing to know there's adults out there that will remember you until they are gone. I remember my lunch ladies from 1st grade, wonderful women and they made sure the children that was most in need received a little extra. Because until they returned the next day would be the only food they received. I was blessed to have a dad that provided for my sister and I. But, those ladies had children that had never forgotten them and I know that for sure.

Morning, Miss Lori! I looked up your recipe this morning to make for supper tonight. As a lunchroom baker, manager and administrator over my 40+ years working in lunchrooms, it’s so nice to have your shared recipes. I used to know so many of them by heart, but when you don’t do it every day, they tend to wander around in my brain and get lost! Hope you’re doing great today. God bless you and Mr Brown! You inspire me!

Thank you dear Lori! Hard to believe my children who are in their 40's never experienced the love of our homemade delicious, "Lunchroom Ladies' " meals at school! In 1972 when we moved to East Wenatchee, WA from Spokane, WA they did not even have a "Hot Lunch" Program and all the kitchens sat unused. Every one had to brown bag it the rest of my school years. My favorite when young was, Pigs In A Blanket Day with the yummy homemade dough!
