Homemade croutons are easy to make:
Sourdough or Gluten-Free Rustic bread torn into pieces. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, dried parsley and garlic powder. Lightly drizzle with olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F for about 6 minutes then flip them and bake an additional 6 - 10 minutes or until they are slightly brown. They will get crispy as they cool.
