No chives for me,since they're not available here.Ate them as a snack.I love homemade croutons! -
I replaced a small amount of sweet paprika with Spanish smoked paprika. Our garden chives wouldn't stick to the croutons and that was using a generous amount of Krazy Glue. Tasted good in a simple green salad. Thanks for posting! -
I found the amount of oil to be excessive for three slices of bread. I cubed almost a whole loaf of an artisan style bread and had enough to coat things. I upped the paprika to one tablespoon and was very generous with the pepper. The chives didn't stick at all, but the croutons were crisp and tasty. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

These were great, crispy and flavourful! I left out the chives since DD doesn't care for them but otherwise made as directed. Thanks. Made for Veggie Swap 38

Yum! I loved the crispiness the oil gave to the croutons! So far have used over salad and soup. Thanks for a tasty recipe Acadia! Made for Vegetarian Swap-Jan. 2011.
