I use those pieces in meatloaf, make croutons and toast them and put in blender and make bread crumbs.
They also make lovely croutons. Cube them, spray lightly with oil, then season them to taste. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until crunchy.





Personally, though, I'd say they really do make the best bread pudding!
You can make stuffing out of them.


You can chop in food processor and make bread crumbs, these are useful in all kinds of recipes. you can seal in air tight baggie and they will stay fresh for weeks.


Turn them so the heal side is in and make grill cheese sandwiches.


Make french toast out of them.
I feed it to the birds. :)
french toast
Bread pudding with rum sauce ... yum!
Put it in meat loaf! Meat loaf is really good and you can choose to make it both with or without bread. It tastes good both ways.
I freeze them in a resealable bag until I have enough for stuffing. Then I stuff pork chops, chicken, eye of round, pork cutlets, etc. I don't have a recipe for my stuffing, I just do it.





Or you could save until you have enough to make bread pudding.





Or you could stuff mushroom caps, they only take one end slice of bread toasted, the chopped mushroom stems, a chopped cherry tomato or a couple of grape tomatoes, a bit of minced onion, a bit of crushed dried thyme, a bit of crushed dried basil and/or oregano, and some Parmesan cheese. You can bake them or serve them raw.
Bread pudding!





Who says you can't have pudding for breakfast...
Well, it's not that creative - but it works well in French Onion Soup.
Spread mayonnaise on the inside or white part.


Slice a wiener into about 3 or 4 slices vertically. Then cut the slices in half where each slice it about 2 and 1/2'; long an put these on the bread. Put cheese on top of this. You can use the shredded cheese, the sliced cheese cut in strips or reg cheese that you cut off the block and then cut in pieces and put on top of wieners.





Place on broiler pan in oven on in toaster oven and broil until cheese melts and the edges of the bread turn a little brown.





Yum Yum throw away the middle of the bread and save the ends.
The end pieces are stupid??? I eat them, especially when it's good bread. If for whatever reason you find them too stupid to eat, cut them up in cubes, toss with a little olive oil, add some herbs and garlic , bake and make croutons.





Or put some cheese on top and put them under the broiler till the cheese melts and starts to brown. You might just find them not so stupid afterall.
Make them into garlic toast! Spread butter on them, sprinkle a little garlic salt on them. Bake them in the oven on 350 for only about 5 minutes!
