Italian Salad Croutons
SUBMITTED BY:

"'These crisp buttery croutons are so good,' comments Ellen Benninger of Greenville, Pennsylvania. 'I don't know where I got the recipe, but I've been using it for more than 10 years.' Toss the croutons in a salad, garnish a bowl of soup with them or sprinkle them on top of a creamy casserole."

I've been making these croutons for years. It's just as good with wheat bread and even more so with homemade bread. I use homemade dry italian dressing mix OR ranch dressing mix. Insane on homemade potato soup and in overnight breakfast casseroles. Try it for yourself. TIP: You can use EVOO or low fat cooking spray in place of the butter/margerine to cut calories/fat.

Very good. I didn't use butter--used olive oil, and I cooked them a bit longer, as I like my croutons very crunchy, but still good. I think this is a very good base recipe that you can easily play with. Thanks!

Very easy and quick, with a good flavor. I recommend baking these at a lower oven temperature for a longer period of time to guarantee a nice, crunchy texture - but keep a close eye on them as they brown quickly.

Very good! I used leftover rolls from the recipe "Burger or hot dog buns". I first tried using a zero calorie butter spray but it made them too dry. I used a combination of both butter and margarine and went heavy on sprinkling the Italian seasoning. I also used onion powder.

I was out of croutons, did not feel like going to the store, so I found this easy and quick recipe. They were delicious and my husband ate quite a few of them prior to them making it to the salad, and then the leftovers later! Highly recommended. I added a little extra seasoning. They were delicious.
