Here's a great way to use leftover bread. Any kind of bread is good but leftover artisan breads are the best. I think I found this easy recipe in an old Martha Stewart Living magazine. I tore it out and don't have the info on it but the picture looks totally Martha. Anyway, here's the scoop:Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes and freeze them. Then when you want to make croutons just toss about 1-1/2 cups of cubes (no need to thaw) in a skillet with 1 tablespoon melted butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper and cook on medium-high until golden brown (about 3 or 4 minutes).
You could vary this lots of ways by throwing in some herbs or garlic powder. Just a thought.
