Adding the crunch to your salad and the perfect topping to your soup, croutons are a fun creation. They’re made with bread, olive oil, garlic salt, and parsley. But here’s the fun part: you can use your own spices!

If you like garlic powder, rosemary, or thyme, you can enjoy them with these croutons. The spices you use are up to you. My favorite recipe to use these on is this Healthy Cauliflower Soup.
