3. Toast

Toast is one of the best uses for stale bread, but you can do so much other than just butter it for breakfast. You could make your own Melba toast (wafer thin toast – plenty of instructions online) to serve with pate or a dip if you’re throwing a party.

Cover the bread with chopped tomatoes and grated cheese (with a pinch of herbs if you like) and stick it under the hot broiler.

7. Stufffing

Your thoughts might be turning to Thanksgiving and Christmas. Stale bread is great for stuffing roast meat. Some recipes will call from breadcrumbs, while others will be as easy as tearing the bread into chunks. Bread is a brilliant carrier for all sorts of flavorings that will guarantee your holiday roasts are a big success.

This was just a few simple ways to use stale bread but there are so many more. From feeding the birds to making rusks for teething babies to even making Christmas decorations, as well as lots of yummy recipes, savory and sweet, there really isn’t any need to throw bread in the garbage or on the compost heap – unless you’ve let it go moldy.

What’s your bread usage like? Do you throw away as much as you use? Going to change that now?
