Garlic Croutons

Simple way to use up stale bread for a tasty salad topper!

4 cups Day old bread (anything works!)
½ cup olive oil
1 T Italian seasoning
1 t Garlic powder
1 t Kosher salt
½ t paprika
Cracked Black Pepper to taste

Method: Preheat oven to 190c. Line a large baking sheet with baking paper. Cut bread into bite size cubes, about 1 – 1½ cm. Add bread cubes to a large mixing bowl, and drizzle with the olive oil, tossing to coat it well. Sprinkle with the seasonings, and toss to coat again, use your hands if needed! Spread the cubes out in a single layer, on the paper lined baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, in preheated oven for 15 – 20 minutes, tossing halfway through. Make sure to be keeping an eye on them so they don’t burn!! Remove from oven, and cool completely. Store in an airtight container, for up to a month. Enjoy with your favorite soups and salads!
