Every week I buy a loaf of bread.The bread is sliced and packed in a bag. Every weekend I find myself throwing out the edges of the loaf. Nobody like to eat them. Maybe because of the shape I have no idea. I hate throwing away food, which is for some stupid reason not eaten. I am looking for some creative ideas , to what to do with the slices of the bread loaf edge?
dance as if nobody's looking

Hi
grind it up in a food processor and make breadcrumbs
take the two edges from the package, and freeze them in a plastic freezer bag. When you have one freezer bag full, it's time to make lots of recipes as bread pudding, bread salad, croutons and stuffing for example
take care

I know I don't know it all
Check my google webpage
Elinoar got it right.
And let me add:
* Make Crouton Floats by melting goats-cheese on up-side-down slices of toasted bread ends. Floats the cheese toasts on a bowl of onion/mushroom/chestnut/squash soup/ crab bisque or chowder.
* Soak the bread and mash it into your favorite hamburger mix for a fluffier burger, or blend with similar quantities of water, tomatoes, onions and bell peppers for gazpacho soup.
* Send it to me, I love the ends...
* Or just feed the birds in your yard or nearby park
I use the dry edges when I make meatballs, The bread is squished into small pieces and the added to your mixture of meat garlic ,parsley chopped onion and your seasoning . It will give your meatballs an excellent texture.

Hi Momi,
Of-course Breadcrumbs is the first solution which comes to ones mind to your question.
Alternatively, you can make a great snack which my mum used to make when we were kids. Here's the recipe-
Crush the edges of bread into smaller pieces(not crumbs)
Fry some onions in any of yr favorite cooking oils(I use sunflower oil)
Put the bread pieces in and fry for 5-7 mins.
Add two pinches of Turmeric Powder (gr8 for health & easily available at any Indian Spice Store)
Add some salt and sugar to taste. And that's it!
We loved this one. Hope u like it too
P.S. Found this gr8 link related to left over bread & edges. Click Here
What you think about you bring about!!!
I'm not a very creative cook, but I really like the ends!! I make toast out of them!!
