With my
January mission to use up food that is in the house, it only seemed natural to also work to preserve what food I had and to minimize waste. Enter the stale rolls. We had some rolls that had been accidentally left out overnight and they were nice and hard on the outside and beyond stale. Normally, these would have gotten thrown out the front door to provide an easy meal for the birds, squirrels and other wildlife that share out land. But not this time! I was planning salads for dinner and decided to make croutons. It was SO easy I’m wondering why I haven’t done this sooner! Here’s the quick directions:
Buttery Garlic Croutons
1. Chop the bread into cubes, about ¾-1 inch square.
2. Melt ¼ cup of butter and sautéed in a heaping tablespoon of minced garlic. This was for about 3 cups of cubes.
3. Toss the bread and butter and then spread the cubes on a cookie sheet. Pop them in the oven at 325 degrees for about 20 minutes.
The finished croutons were melt in your mouth, buttery, garlicy perfectnes!
