Making Crumbs

DSC07229

Sunday was a quiet day for me. The girls were at their Dads and I was working on some new products, formating them and getting them ready for sale. It was pretty cold out, January can be that way. I decided that it would be good to make homemade bread crumbs out of all the left over bread bits that I’ve been saving in my freezer. We make most of our bread, but still, I watch the local market and they have their fancy breads occasionally in the discount bin and I will grab a few loafs when they are super cheap. They are great toasted, or saved up for bread crumbs.

I just lay the slices on a cookie pan, and turn my little toaster oven on about 250 or so. It doesn’t take too long for the bread to dry out, especially if it’s already kind of stale. When Maggie got home, I had a nice bit pile of bread for her to crumblize in the food processer. She loves doing that. She is the kind of kid that love those Magic Bullet videos on YouTube…. the will it blend ones! HAHA… So she blended up all the various breads I had dried over the afternoon and we have now a full jar of gourmet and homemade bread crumbs! Ready for meatloaf or meatballs or whatever you need some good bread crumbs for.

I’m thinking meatballs this week…. with our own garden tomato sauce from the deep freeze… maybe even homemade pasta!!! Hmmmm…. Wednesday is Moby Spaghetti Day….

  1. yay! I never thought of the crumbs idea. I just replaced my old food processor yesterday. Now I can take the 3 bags of apples I have and make my own applesauce, that I will then turn into my own apple butter. canning is so addictive :)
