Who knew croutons could be so easy?

Have you ever been making a salad and realize you don't have all the ingredients you want in a salad? Have you noticed the price of good croutons is a tad pricey? Did you know that making your own croutons is extremely easy and cheap? I experimented making my own croutons and was quite surprised and pleased on how they turned out. Ingredients you’ll: ½ Cup Olive Oil (or more depending on how many pieces a bread you are using) Seasons of your choice (I used Italian seasoning) 6 – 8 Pieces of bread of your choice To Make: Heat oven to 300ºF Mix the olive oil and seasonings in a bowl with a whisk. Brush the oil mixture on both sides of the pieces of bread. Cut the bread into the desired size croutons. Bake in the oven for 30 – 45 minutes. This time varies depending on how thick you put the oil on the bread and how big your pieces of croutons are. I highly recommend monitoring your croutons to prevent burning. Cool and store. Picture's will be coming soon!
