Au Gratin

What to do with excess summer breads and dry cereals taking up an entire freezer shelf? "Condense," say I. 

Today's clean-out resulted in a bowl full of crumbs that include the following varieties:

Potato rolls, wheat buns, 7-grain bread, Kaiser rolls, bakery fare, low-cal slices, unsweetened Special K and Chex. 

Back To The Freezer
I let my Cuisinart do the work, controlling the mix to include both fine and coarse crumbs. Tossed together, they'll create great flavors and textures on or in many dishes.

Tonight?
