Seasoning for Bread, Croutons or Breadcrumbs
"I just came up with this. My DH & I had a wonderful oil based dipping sauce for bread at an Italian restaurant. I was shocked when DH tried it and like it. I was just thinking about that day and thought I can replicate that dipping sauce. This is what I came up with. I also tossed with bread and baked for croutons and breadcrumbs."

ingredients
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 2 teaspoons italian seasoning
- 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
directions
- Mix all ingredients together.
- If making for a dip you are done. Serve with a pasta dish and warm breadsticks.
- If making croutons heat oven to 350°F.
- Cut up bread into bite size pieces. Place bread and oil mixture in a sealable bag toss to coat.
- Arrange on baking sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Cool and store in an airtight container.
- If making bread crumbs complete steps for croutons and then place croutons in food processor and blend.
- If you feel the crumbs are too wet place on baking sheet and bake for another 5 minutes watching very closely. These will burn in the blink of an eye.
- Store in airtight container.
- I usually freeze in a storage bag until ready to use.

I used it as a dipping sauce for bread. I used homemade italian seasoning. And instead of salt, I used seasoning salt (no sodium). It was really good. Thanks Huskergirl. Made for the Babes of ZWT4 -
Great taste for dipping bread! For the Italian seasoning, I used basil, oregano, parsley and thyme. Made for ZWT4-Fancy Feinschmeckers! -
I made this recipe planning on making croutons with it. My husband got a hold of my sourdough bread and the spice/oil mixture and managed to eat quite a bit of it! Luckily I was able to toast a few croutons. They turned out great!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Hello, I am a married, no little ones, but great DH and 3 cats. Grew up in rural Nebraska with a family who loves to cook and eat. Trying to be healthier these days and lose some lbs. I do a lot of batch cooking (not quite OAMC). I am trying to get my sister to do it, she has 4 boys (14 to 6) very active and a husband. I love to collect recipes and cookbooks.
I have decided that I am going to try to a new recipe each week. That will be 52 new things done this year.
MY RATING SYSTEM:
5 stars: recipes that I or DH personally like . These will include recipes that I may have added or subtracted ingredients for personal tastes.
4 stars: recipes that I or DH thought was good & would eat if served to us, probably will not make again without changes.
3 stars: This is a dish that looks good but the flavor just is not there. More than likely will not make again
2 stars: Not our tastes at all. Not to say this recipe is not good just not for us.
1 star: I think that the we would have to end up in the hospital to give a 1 star rating, but will see how it goes.
