For some reason, croutons are a rarity around our house.
But they’re so yummy and crunchy.
I should make them more often, especially when they’re so easy to make.
Here’s the gist:
Whole Wheat Bread (I use my Homemade Whole Wheat Bread)
Olive oil
Italian seasoning
Garlic salt
Toss the ingredients together, cook them until golden, and then toss them on a salad.
Yep, simple and yummy.
Crunch. Crunch.
