Maybe you purchased too much bread at the grocery store. Or, maybe you just forgot that you had some bread in your bread box. If your bread is stale, don't despair. There are many things that you can do with stale bread, so rest assured that your bread purchase won't go to waste!
Instructions
1. Use stale bread to make toast. Stale bread can still make good toast to serve with breakfast or extra crunchy garlic bread to accompany your pasta dinner.
2. Make French toast one morning for breakfast. Stale bread is good to use in French toast because the dry bread will readily soak up the egg and milk mixture.
3. Use your leftover stale bread to make bread crumbs. Toast stale bread and then crush it in a food processor or with a kitchen mallet. Bread crumbs can be used in many recipes, such as meatballs or as a coating for chicken or fish.
4. Cut stale bread into chunks and place them on a baking sheet to make croutons. Drizzle the cubes with olive oil and spices such as garlic or pepper, then bake in a moderate oven until they are crunchy and golden brown.
5. Use stale bread to make stuffing (or dressing) for a Sunday supper or Thanksgiving dinner. Substitute your stale bread in your favorite stuffing recipe and no one will know that difference after you add your seasonings and top it with gravy.
6. Make an Italian bread salad, called Panzanella, with stale or crusty bread.
7. Feed your stale bread to the birds and squirrels outside, or add it to your compost pile.
