    Garlic pamesan croutons

    Cut bread into 1cm squares. Put in a lidded box with olive oil, crushed garlic, and finely grated parmesan. Shake vigorously until well mixed. Put onto an oven tray and cook at gas 5 for 15 mins, or until crisp.

    Hi Thriftlady,
    I've just looked at the French recipe site and there are some cracking recipes. To help translate here is a great dictionary site.

  • Whenever bread is beginning to get a bit stale or any unused crusts make great french toast, just beat together eggs and a bit of milk and a teaspoon of caster sugar if you like it a bit sweeter, soak the bread in it and fry in a small amount of butter, the kids love this and it makes a quick lunch, you can freeze the bread for when you want it also or as in our case family of 6, you need a few days scraps of bread to make enough!
