Pennies Pennies Everywhere: A Use for Bread Crusts

So, I admit that some of these are resurrected older posts. But they are just so timely right now! Since writing this post, I have gone gluten free. And since then, I hate throwing out bread crusts even more because a loaf of gluten free bread runs about $5.00! Even so, in this time of wanting to save money and for some, simply not wanting to go to a store, here is an idea for older bread crusts:

Don't you just hate throwing out bread crusts? There are many uses for them and here is one:

Tonight, I made sloppy joes, but instead of buying buns for the sloppy joes, I toasted bread crusts! After the bread crusts were toasted, we loaded them up with pickles, sloppy joe sauce, cheese and onions. They can be eaten either by picking them up or cutting them with a fork.

Other uses for bread crusts are using them with chicken gravy, mini-pizzas or some people like making bread pudding or stuffing with them. To make with chicken gravy, just toast the bread and make a chicken gravy with meat to pour on them. To make mini-pizzas, simply top with tomato sauce and cheese and any other topping you may like and broil. To make stuffing, you will need to cut up the pieces. Here is a recipe for stuffing https://www.spendwithpennies.com/easy-stuffing-recipe/

A few pennies here and a few pennies there all add up to dollars, not to mention not having to go to the store. 

Happy Savings!
