Hot Dog Buns

Tip of the day- Hot dog buns!
I absolutely love when there are leftover hot dog buns. You may think to just let them sit until they are stale or moldy but I would say you are missing out! Here are some ideas,
Croutons- Cube them and let them sit on a cookie sheet over night. You can toast in the oven but why waste the energy when nature does it for free. Store them in a airtight container. When you are having salad lightly toast them in the skillet with a little EVOO. Then toss with italian seasoning and garlic powder. You dont want the seasoning in while toasting because they will burn, yuck.
Bread Crumbs- Let sit out until dried out, you can cut them up a bit if you like. Then whirl them through the food processor. You can season them but I leave them plain for more possibilities.
Garlic bread- Split open the bun and brush with EVOO and top with garlic, italian seasoning, and parm. Toast until the broiler, watching close.
Meatball sandwiches- Make the garlic bread above then top with meatballs and marinara for a delicious dinner. I use froze meatballs so this is a quick and tasty dinner.
