We all love to buy croutons and use them in our salads and soups. But to be honest they are so easy to make at home. And we always have leftover, stale bread in the fridge. So instead of wasting it, we should put it to good use. Whenever I have some stale bread leftover, I gather it all and then make my own croutons and I can tell you now, it only takes 15 minutes to make them. Store them in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. They are so good that I guarantee they won’t even last longer than a week.
