I bought a loaf of my favorite olive bread, or so I thought. But it turned out to be garlic bread, a bit too garlicky for a regular choice. Rather than bring it back to the store, where it would be thrown out, I decided to go with the flow and keep it, although I didn't feel like freezing it.
It was nice sliced, toasted, and buttered. I just now decided that I'm going to make fresh croutons with the rest since I have some romaine and feta. Later I'll pick up a red onion and some kalamata olives and have a nice salad.
Sue(tm) Lead me not into temptation... I can find it myself!

That sounds good! If you have any bread left over, I bet it would make tasty bread crumbs.

Wow, it is refreshing to hear that someone took responsibility for their own actions. And you ended up with croutons to boot.

Awww, shucks ... :> Actually it wasn't my fault. I left out the part where the loaf was mislabeled, which is why I ended up with it. I had carefully searched through the bread table for the "Olive Loaf," which I really like. But I will take credit for having mercy on the poor bread-packaging person and not bringing the loaf back to the store.

Good idea- it reminds me of the English muffin pizzas we used to make in the dorm, so many years ago :>

Holy crow, is there such a thing?

Big chunks of partially cooked garlic thoughout the loaf- woo!. It was fine toasted, but I'm not going to make a sandwich with it. =:-o

Take a couple of slices, butter and bake them, as if you were making huge croutons.
Make a nice mushroom fricassee and serve it over the hot croutons. You can add some small fresh peas to the mushrooms. It is a great appetizer if you have company or a nice meal for yourself.
If I make this, I always rub some fresh garlic into the bread before I bake it until crisp and with your bread, you can skip this step. :o)

Oh, sounds like my idea of heaven. Be warned, it woke me up once in the middle of the night, dreaming of a horrible smell then realizing it was my armpit!

I'll bet it would make some fantastic bruschetta. Brush on some good olive oil, add chopped mushrooms, tomatoes, shredded prosciutto, mozzarella, salt and papper, and a drizzle of more good olive oil and bake them 'til melted, crunchy and delicious. Top with fresh basil, pour a glass of wine, light some candles, and enjoy.

That does sound good- I love mushrooms!
