Crunchy Croutons

Every salad needs a little crunch. But who wants store bought croutons with how many cals? So I created my own crunchy croutons recipe. They are simple to make & mighty tasty.

What you need:
-Freshly grated parmesan
-Day old baguette
-Olive oil
-Italian Seasoning
-Salt
-Garlic

Let's get cookin!
-Slice the day old bread into your desired crouton size
-In a skillet heat up olive oil & garlic
-Toss in bread chunks & drizzle with more olive oil
-Alternate olive oil & salt as you toss the croutons until they brown
-Sprinkle italian seasoning onto the bread
-Place the croutons in the oven at 400 degrees for 6-8 minutes
-When they are crunchy & brown remove from oven
-Freshly grate parmesan on the top
-Top off your fav salad with the croutons!
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, but trust me they never last that long
