    "i ate a salad with tomatoes and croutons for dinner. i really just ate the croutons."--unknown author

    Croutons are little pieces of bread. They are often cut into cubes. They can be seasoned or brushed with butter prior to baking. After baking, the hard, cubed pieces of bread are called croutons and are often found on salads, in soups or eaten as snacks.

    does bread matter?

    Yes, bread always matters but for croutons it matters just a little less. Many crouton recipes call for stale bread but you can use fresh bread. It's perfectly fine to substitute keto bread, gluten free bread or low carb bread too.

    what meals can you use croutons in?

    Croutons are perfect for:

    • Salads
    • Soups
    • Casseroles
    • Stuffing
    • On Top of Salad
    The food manager got tired of not being able to sample so she started looking for birds!

    what recipes are great for using croutons?

    Try some croutons and some new recipes too! Croutons are perfect in:

    • Copycat Campbell's Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons
    • Chicken Caesar Salad (coming soon!)

    storing croutons
