# Caesar Salad
![croutons](pix/croutons.webp)
Croutons are an essential addition to many salads. They are delicious and easy to make at home.
## Ingredients
- Hearty White Bread
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Spices
## Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Gently cut slices of white bread into squares with a chef's knife. One to two slices is usually enough for one person.
2. In a large bowl combine olive oil, spices, and bread squares and gently mix to thoroughly season bread. Spices can be anything but I recommend oregano, paprika, black pepper, garilc powder or freshly minced garlic, and a small pinch of cayenne.
3. Spread seasoned breaad squares large face down onto a baking sheet evenly and put in oven for 6-8 minutes. Once the bread has crisped flip each square and put back in oven for another 6-8 minutes or until crispy throughout.
4. Once fully baked, let rest until cool. These can be eaten immediately or saved in a sandwich bag for later.
