Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 6 pieces of white bread (cut into bite sized squares with the crusts removed)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon butter (melted)
  • 1 tablespoon freeze dried chives
  • 1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese

Instruction

  • Pre-heat your oven to 300°
  • Cut the crusts off of your bread and cut into bite sized pieces.
  • Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of oil on a baking sheet and kind of rub it around with your fingers to grease the whole surface.
  • Add your bread to the baking sheet and gently stir and toss your bread around so that the oil coats all sides. Drizzle the last 1/2 tablespoon over the top of the bread and toss again.
  • Sprinkle 1/2 of your garlic powder, salt, chives and Parmesan Cheese over the bread. Toss and sprinkle the remaining seasonings.
  • Put in the oven and bake at 300° for 13 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle your melted butter over the tops of your croutons. Toss and place back in the oven and turn it to broil.
  • Watch your croutons carefully as the broiler cooks them very quickly, especially after you have added your butter.
  • When they are starting to brown they are done! Remove from the oven and add to your salad.
  • Serve and enjoy!
