I have to admit, I have a bad track record with stale bread. I'll make it for a specific meal (say as an accompanyment for soup) and maybe toast the next morning. Then, I forget about it. One resolution of starting this blog is to make sure I use my bread until the entire loaf is gone! For example, here's what happened with what I've made this past week:
- White bread - First it was used to dip in chicken noodle soup, then made grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch
- Pizza Dough - Made four dough balls - used two for dinner, the other two went into the freezer to be used laster this week
- Dutch Apple Cake - Still eating it! It's delicious and not stale at all...maybe there's 1 or 2 slices left and they will be gone by the morning.
For inspiration, this
site on raising a family on a budget has a lot of great ideas for leftover bread, including:
- Bread Crumbs
- Croutons
- French Toast
- Bread Pudding
- Stuffing/Dressing
- Breakfast Casseroles & Stratas
- Use as a base when making a meatloaf.
What do you do with your leftover bread?
