directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees on Bake.
  • Cut bread into 3/4 inch wide strips and lay them flat on an aluminum pan (I like to use scissors not knives).
  • Drizzle olive oil onto bread, sprinkle herbs and cheese.
  • Pop into the oven for 15-20 minutes.
  • If you want to make mini croutons for salad, cut the bread into small cubes (instead of step one) and follow same procedure.

  1. These were perfection and I even forgot the cheese!! I made them on whole grain heels, popped them in the toaster oven and sliced them afterward. When my 3 yr old ate one she asked me if it was a treat. So easy and tasty!! Thanks for posting!
     
  2. Crunchy, tasty, and easy. I used a sour dough bread b/c that is what I had on hand, and more oil than 2 teaspoons but otherwise made as posted. We did eat as an appetizer, and will use the leftovers tomorrow in tossed salad. Thanks Chef552053 for posting. Made for My-3-Chefs.

I love to cook! But I hate cleaning up afterwards, haha. I like cooking all types of cultural foods, I believe everything tastes good in a unique way, nothing edible can be disgusting, besides bugs and poop and that stuff [=
