Wild Mushroom and Sage Croutons

These home made croutons will be the talk of the town and they're a great way to use up leftover bread.  You can make these with just about any type of bread.  Preheat the oven to 375.  Cut fresh or 1 day old French bread in to 1" cubes.  Don't bother removing the crust, it adds texture.  In a large bowl, toss four cups of bread cubes with 1/2 cup of Wild Mushroom-Sage Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 1 tablespoon of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper.  When the bread is evenly coated, place the cubes on a rimmed baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven.  Bake for 35 minutes, stirring a couple times to ensure even browning.
