Comfort Food + Homemade Croutons

























I was craving some serious comfort food, so I roasted up some tomatoes and onions to make some tomato soup! I paired with with a grilled sauerkraut and cheese. It was sooo delicious, but missing something... I still need to perfect it, so I'll post the good recipe when I do. I'm not sure if anyone has tried the Lisanatte brand vegan almond cheese, but it's amazingly delicious. I tried the Monterey Jack variety. Not very Monterey tasting, but mm mm good none-the-less.

Another point of making the soup and sandwich, was to use up a loaf of bread that's going stale. I love fresh baked bread, but it always goes stale so quickly. An easy way to use up the bread is to make croutons for soup or salad.

To make croutons:
Break bread into small pieces. Add a dash of olive oil, 1 clove chopped garlic, and a dash of salt. Mix thoroughly in a bowl. Add to a cookie sheet and toast in a 350 degree oven. Cook for 10-15 minutes. Ta-da!
