Organic Bread Crumbs

Go organic this holiday season with Organic Breadcrumbs and Croutons from Edward & Son’s Trading Company.

The croutons are available in Lightly Salted, Italian Herbs and Onion Garlic flavors, and breadcrumbs are available in Lightly Salted, Italian Herbs and Panko (Japanese Style Breadcrumbs).
All are made with USDA certified organic ingredients, are vegan and are low in fat and cholesterol.

Holiday Stuffing
1 bag Edward & Sons Organic Lightly Salted or Onion Garlic Croutons
4 Tbsp Butter or Vegan alternative
1 cup Onions (or ½ cup onions & ½ cup celery)
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
1/2 tsp Sage
1/2 tsp Thyme
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Pepper
1/4 cube Organic Country Vegetable bouillon (dissolved in ½ cup hot water)

In a pan melt the 4 tablespoons butter or Vegan alternative. Add the onions (or onion/celery combination) and cook until tender but not brown (approximately 5 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the parsley, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir in the croutons and mix well. Stir in 1/3 – 1/2 cup of prepared Organic Country Vegetable Bouillon cube stock. For stuffing you may now use as is. If baking separately, you may want to moisten with a little more prepared Organic Country Vegetable Bouillon cube stock before putting the mixture in a shallow buttered baking dish and baking at 350ºF. Bake for 25-40 minutes until a crust has formed on top.

Italian Herbs Breadcrumb Stuffing
6 Tbsp. Butter or Vegan alternative
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1 1/2 cups Edward & Sons Organic Italian Herbs Breadcrumbs
1/4 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp. Black pepper
1 Tbsp. Finely chopped fresh parsley
1/2 tsp. Lemon juice

In a pan, melt the 6 tablespoons butter or Vegan alternative. Add the chopped onions and celery. Cook until tender but not brown (approximately 5 minutes). In a separate bowl, blend the breadcrumbs with the salt, black pepper and parsley. Add the butter/vegetable combination to the breadcrumb mixture and add the lemon juice. Mix well. Ready to use as a stuffing for mushrooms, zucchini, squash or seafood.
