These were amazing. I did not have any french bread - only had a few hamburger rolls, but still came out superb!! I did add some basil and parm. cheese as a reviewer suggested.

Very good! I just uesd non-stick cooking spray and sprayed them before tossing with garlic powder, salt and italian seasoning. So quick and easy to make!

This was quick and easy. My family devoured these goodies up in the salad I made. No more store bought croutons for this family....homemade is the way! hehehe

6-4-11: Used pumpernickel, was OK, but Ann thought it would have been better with different bread.

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. this recipe. Like others I personalized it by also adding cracked pepper, dried onion, and parmesan cheese. I used a loaf of French bread that I bought on the day old cart. The first attempt I screwed up by adding the seasonings to the oil. Big mistake. Then I mixed all my seasonings and put them in an empty spice bottle (with the holes in top) - then just sprinkled it over the oiled croutons! I baked at 400º. Watch the oven though because they cook fast.

I cut this recipe in half and used half of a italian baguette I bought the day before off the discount bread rack at my local store. This was very easy to make and added a little something to our dinner's salad. This is a nice base recipe to take and run with by adding whichever spices you'd like to your oil before brushing it onto the bread. This would also make a good base for homemade breadcrumbs.

Yummy!!! I used garlic salt instead of powder and mixed the bread cubes in a bowl with the oil and spices. Cooked at 350 degrees for 15 mins shaking halfway through. Made these for a Caesar Salad to go with Pasta De Sardine (also from this site).

Yummy is definitely the word to describe these! I'll NEVER ever go back to store bought again! I had a loaf of Italian bread that was going stale and this recipe was perfect for it. I used EVOO instead of veg. oil and tossed them instead of just drizzling the mixture over top. I baked them at 375 instead of 400 and watched them carefully so they didn't burn. I turned them during cooking. So good, I made a second batch and experimented with using a packet of Good Seasons Italian Salad dressing mix plus some minced garlic along with the olive oil. I think you can mix up just about any combination of herbs, spices, and add in some grated cheese and it'll turn out great! A perfect add-in to salads, soups, casseroles - whatever you can think of...
