Bread Crumbs

When I am at my best, I make all of our bread. Bread is simple to make, inexpensive, and requires no special tools. We love it, but lately I have not been making it regularly. Instead, I am buying much of our bread at an outlet store. The deals are excellent. They offer a military discount, and a punch card program to receive free bread. However, no one at my house wants to eat the end slices of store bought bread. So, for a while now I have been saving the end slices in a bag in the freezer. I use the end slices to make Baked French Toast or bread crumbs.

I primarily use bread crumbs in meatloaf or meat balls (recipe coming up soon!). And, I make mine plain without seasoning. But, the addition of Italian Seasoning would be great if you prefer. As I continue to eliminate food waste from my kitchen and reduce my grocery costs, this had been a great solution for unwanted bread.

6 frozen bread slices

Tear bread in half and place in a food processor. Process until finely ground. Store in a canning jar in the freezer. Use in place of store bought bread crumbs directly from the freezer.
