What better way to work with cooling off hot oil than to fry bread in it? After all, the bread will be used as a topping for a nutritious salad.

Snerk.

So, yeah, having bread soak up oil, while tasty, makes a greasy crouton. I’m not sure if the croutons would have been better if they were more stale and/or toasty before hand, I will have to try that next time.

I am also slightly ashamed to admit that the bread here? It is store bought devoid of nutrition Wonderbread. But it says it has calcium!
