+##Description
+Croutons are a great way to repurpose old bread. They are quick, easy to make, and delicious! I like to use mine in Kale salad. 
+
+##Ingredients
+- Bread (Any bread will do!)
+- Olive Oil
+- Salt
+- Pepper
+- Garlic Powder
+
+##Instructions
+1. Heat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
+2. Slice up bread into cubes.
+3. Place bread cubes on non-stick sheet pan.
+4. Cover bread with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
+5. Bake croutons in oven until brown. I recommend flipping or mixing around the bread pieces halfway through the bake.[^1]
+6. Once brown, turn off oven and let croutons harden for 5 minutes.
+7. Remove croutons from oven and let them cool.
+8. Once cool, store in an airtight container. I like to store mine in a Mason Jar.

+***
+
+[^1]: I find the bake time varies based on how dense the bread you are using is. Airy bread can take closer to 5 minutes while denser bread can take closer to 10 minutes. Rather than setting a timer, I recommend keeping an eye on the bread as it bakes.
