These are excellent croutons........I just served mine with a salad but I think these would be wonderful in soup, especially tomato or red pepper. I also used a homemade pesto sauce.
Pesto Croutons
2 cups (about 3 ounces) 3/4-inch stale bread cubes
3 tablespoons store-bought pesto
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Heat oven to 400° F. Place the bread in a large bowl. Stir in the pesto, salt, and pepper and toss well to combine. Spread out on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until golden, about 10 minutes
Yield: Makes 2 cups
