  • Let's be honest, the best part of a salad is ____________ (fill in the blank). For me, it's the dressing, the extra cheese and of course the croutons!

    Homemade Texas Toast Croutons

    There are a few things, in my mind, that truly make a salad. One is the dressing, I think this is a given. It's what pulls all the ingredients together.

And then you'll need to top it with a crispy crunchy crouton, just like these Homemade Texas Toast Croutons.
