Very tasty. I made these to go with a spinach salad and they definitely elevated the taste of the salad. Will make again.

I used melted butter instead of vegetable oil and used thinly sliced baguettes instead to make little toasts for a spinach and artichoke dip. I didn't measure the garlic powder and basil but rather just sprinkled a little bit over each piece. I also sprinkled a bit of paprika on the center of each piece, which looked BEAUTIFUL!! These MADE the dip, as it was a bit plain with regular bread. I will definitley make these again

Great basic crouton recipe. I used whole wheat bread and olive oil. I will be making these regularly as I often have left over bread.

Very good flavor! I'm not a huge fan of basil so I used only 1 TB instead of 2. This recipe's a keeper!

These are definitely easy and good, but not great. Anyhow, served these over a caesar salad and it made a nice meal with the chicken and rice combo.

I didn't have any croutons for a chefs salad & found this recipe. Well I wasn't too sure about how they would taste, but they came out great. My granddaughters come over & eat them as a snack, so I have to keep making more. I would rather take the time to make these than buy the ones in the grocery store.

I loved these croutons! Easy to make and GREAT on salads. This makes a decent sized batch and can easily be saved in a tupperware/air-tight container. Thanks a bunch Laura!

These are very easy and fun for the kids to make and the best part is you can season to your liking.

Yummy croutons for snacking, for salads and for recipes that call for bread crumb toppings. Just pulse in the food processor and you have instant seasoned bread crumb. I put all the ingredients in a plastic bag and shake. Substitute half garlic-flavored olive oil and half melted butter for the vegetable oil.Thanks Laura.

Easy to make and tastes great! I also sprayed with butter flavored cooking spray to give a buttery taste. Also great as a snack.

Great recipe! I had crusts cut from sandwiches I made for a tea and used them to make croutons. Love the result! Thanks Laura!

I just made these this morning, and they are wonderful. I did substitute olive oil for the veggie oil though... they turned out excellent.

This was great! Makes 6 servings??? Maybe if you're eating them as a snack, but it goes a LONG ways as salad croutons. I found it easier to make 1/2 batch at a time, and to first put the bread cubes in a large bowl and pour the oil (I substituted 1/4 cup olive oil & 1/4 cup melted margarine) over the cubes and then add the seasoning and mix well, before placing them on the baking pan. Will definately add this to my list of favorites!

Really good. I sprinkle with parmesan cheese also. They never make it to the salad because everyone snacks on them.

These croutons where Great! Nice change from store bought. And nice way to use up day old french bread you forgot about. I've made these several times. My two young sons love to eat as a snack. Follow the directions and watch your timing. If you forget they will burn and not taste so good. Thanks for the recipe Laura!
