Homemade Croutons

This is a public service announcement.

It seems for years we have been doing our salad injustice!  We take our beautiful fresh garden greens and top it with stale, artificial tasting, bagged croutons. Why?  Because we didn’t realize making our own was so easy!

I have always been a sorta like croutons kind of girl but once I started making my own, they have pretty much become more than just a salad topping.  My family will eat these for a snack, my daughter’s boyfriend asks to take some home whenever he comes for dinner, and friends and family are always wanting the recipe.

Because I consider you all friends…I want to share the recipe with you too!

Keep reading for the salad changing printable recipe.

The stars of the show. 8 simple, mostly pantry staples.

Get your butter, oil and spices in a 9×13 baking dish and place that in your pre-heated oven.

Cube your baguette into bite size pieces.

After about 30 minutes, this gloriousness happens! Crispy without the expensive dentist bill and so flavorful!

Garden fresh salad topped right!

See, simple right?

Is there something you make homemade that is much better than store bought?  Please share a link or comment down below, I would love to check it out!

Thanks for visiting.

~Be Blessed and be a Blessing~
