# Croutons

![croutons](pix/croutons.webp)

Croutons are an essential addition to many salads.  They are delicious and easy to make at home.

## Ingredients

- Hearty White Bread
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Spices

## Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.  Gently cut slices of white bread into squares with a chef's knife.  One to two slices is usually enough for one person.
2. In a large bowl combine olive oil, spices, and bread squares and gently mix to thoroughly season bread.  Spices can be anything but I recommend oregano, paprika, black pepper, garilc powder or freshly minced garlic, and a small pinch of cayenne.
3. Spread seasoned breaad squares large face down onto a baking sheet evenly and put in oven for 6-8 minutes.  Once the bread has crisped flip each square and put back in oven for another 6-8 minutes or until crispy throughout.
4. Once fully baked, let rest until cool.  These can be eaten immediately or saved in a sandwich bag for later.
