** Recipe from
Chef Pablo's Restaurant Recipes **
* 2 full loafs of bread (just get the cheap stuff)
* 1 lb. of real butter (no margarine on this one, sorry)
* 2 ½ Tbl. Cajun seasoning blend
* ½ c. finely chopped garlic (yes, that’s really the amount)
Heat oven to 350. Cube the bread into about 1" square pieces. Cut butter into smaller chunks & place in microwave for 10 secs. Stir & return to microwave for another 5 secs. It should have the consistency of mayonnaise. Mix Cajun seasoning & chopped garlic into butter blend and let sit while you toast the croutons the first time. Spread the cubes of bread onto a cookie sheet and put into the oven for 10 min, then remove & let cool completely before moving on to the next step. Gently mix the cool croutons into the butter mix until completely coated. Place croutons back onto cookie sheet & bake an additional 10 min. Check for desired crunchiness and, if needed, toss & return to oven for an additional 5-10 min. Let cool & add to your favorite salad recipe.
