RE: Recipe Using Day Old Bagels Post By Nathan (Guest Post) (07/08/2008) Yo, Me too! I need a way to use these bagels, because I get at least two dozen a day for free! maybe improvisational cooking could be in order. Report Spam or Abuse French Toast Casserole Post By Pam Barr (Guest Post) (11/18/2007) I've tried the recipe using 7 cinnamon bagels (cut up) and then placed in a baking dish. Pour a mixture of 12 eggs, 1 block of cream cheese (diced),and 1 small bottle of syrup. Cover the casserole with one can of apple pie mix and then sprinkle with cinnamon. Cover with aluminum foil, bake at 350 for at least an hour or until a knife comes out clean. This recipe can also be done with blueberry bagels and substitute blueberry pie mix.

Add a thin slice of ham(any kind will do. we like turkey ham.) Put sprouts any kind we prefer alfalfa though. Cover with a slice of american, cheddar or your choice of cheese. Nummmmmmmmy Bake on 350* for about 8 minutes. Till cheeses melt. We have most of these ingredients on hand so it is an easy, fast and inexpensive way to feed family. Of course hubby eats more then one. You can add what ever to it to make up your meal. I read children should always eat potatoes, so we have them almost every day. We have potato farmers living up north a bit so we buy 50 to 100 lb at a time for about $8.00 a bag. If you bake them and slice in half almost all the way through, dig out the potato and mix like you would mashed potatoes. I add a small amount of bacon/bits, veggie of choice to help expand the meal. The kids really like this for dinner. Baked squashes any kind you like are great and oven is on. I try to do as much with the oven at that time as I can. It helps cut on cost and baking a few extra potatoes are great for fried potatoes the next day with eggs.

What I did to the bagels was this: Get a frying pan out. Turn it to medium heat. Put a tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, coat the bottom of the pan. Cut the bagels in 1/2, then butter them. Place the butter bagels in the pan. Let them crisp until golden brown. The Garlic, The Everything and Plain bagels go VERY well with pasta!

I would freeze them if you can't use them right away.

They will last for a few weeks & if for some reason you think they won't get eaten in that amount of time, freeze them.

I have also cut them up and put in my food processor or blender to make bread crumbs.

But aside from that, we use them to make pizza - Toast them first, then add pizza sauce, mozzarella cheeses, and your favorite toppings. Put in the oven or under the broiler just long enough to melt the cheese. The possibilities are endless. Of course, you probably wouldn't want to use blueberry or cinnamon bagels, but I guess these would work too, if you wanted to use maybe a creamy cheese and a fruit topping....

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and lightly spray 2 baking sheets with regular or olive oil cooking spray. Cut bagels in half vertically, then cut into thin rounds, or stand on cut ends and slice into thin half circles. Place on baking sheets and spray with cooking spray. Bake 10 minutes or till crispy. You can also sprinkle with garlic powder and any herb you like after spraying or be really bad and skip the spray and brush each side with garlic butter before baking! This works with pita bread and tortillas too.

I USE STALE BREAD TO MAKE BREAD PUDDING AND BREAKFAST CASSEROLES. BREAD PUDDING FILL BUTTERED CASSEROLE WITH BITE SIZE PIECES OF STALE BREAD. BEAT 4 EGGS ADD 1 C SUGAR 1 t CINNAMON (OPTIONAL) 1/2 C RAISINS (OPTIONAL) 1 t VANILLA 2 CUPS MILK 1 t SALT POUR OVER BREAD PIECES AND SPRINKLE WITH MORE SUGAR& CINNAMON AFTER BREAD HAS SOAKED UP ALL LIQUID. BAKE AT 350 FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES OR UNTIL FIRM AND GOLDEN ON TOP. SERVE WARM WITH LEMON CURD, BOURBAN SAUCE OR NOTHING AT ALL. MY 83 YEAR OLD DADDY LIKES IT WITH HALF N HALF OR ICE CREAM WHILE IT'S STILL WARM. BREAKFAST CASSEROLE FILL BUTTERED CASSEROLE DISH WITH STALE BREAD CUBES. ADD CUBED HAM OR COOKED SAUSAGE - BROKEN PIECES OF BACON ADD SHREDDED CHEDDER CHEESE TOSS WITH BREAD CRUMBS. BEAT 6 EGGS AND 1 CUP MILK WITH SALT AND PEPPER POUR OVER BREAD MIXTURE AND TOSS TO COAT WITH EGG MIXTURE. AFTER BREAD HAS SOAKED UP ALL LIQUID BAKE AT 350 FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES OR UNTIL FIRM. TOP WITH MORE CHEESE AND RETURN TO OVEN UNTIL CHEESE IS MELTED AND BUBBLING. YOU CAN SAUTE ONIONS, PEPPERS (HOT OR SWEET) AND ADD TO BREAD MIX BEFORE ADDING EGG MIXTURE AND THIS ADDS EXTRA PIZZAZ AS WELL. I SERVE THIS WITH FRESH FRUIT OR SLICED TOMATOES - JUICE AND COFFEE. MAKES A GREAT EVENING MEAL TOO. GREAT FOR FEEDING A BUNCH FOR A LITTLE MONEY. GARLIC CROUTONS CUBED STALE BREAD OF ANY KIND MIX TOGETHER: 1 STICK BUTTER MELTED MINCED GARLIC TO TASTE (I USE 4 CLOVES) 1 TEASPOON SALT DRIZZLE OVER BREAD CUBES AND TOSS UNTIL COATED. ADD HERBS OF YOUR CHOICE OR NOT - GREAT AS IS. PLACE ON NON-STICK COOKIE SHEET IN A SINGLE LAYER AND BAKE AT 425 UNTIL TOASTED GOLDEN. WATCH CLOSELY SO IT DOESN'T BURN.

GREAT ON SALADS OR SOUP PUT IN A BLENDER AND MAKE BREAD CRUMBS WITH HERBS OF CHOICE AND A LITTLE OLIVE OIL - BAKE AS A TOPPING ON YOUR FAVORITE CASSEROLE FOR ADDED FLAVOR AND CRISPINESS. USE AS BREAD CRUMBS IN YOUR FAVORITE MEAT LOAF OR MEAT BALL RECIPE OR TO COAT CHICKEN OR PORK CHOPS FOR A CRISPY COATING AFTER YOU DIP IN FLOUR AND EGG WASH.

You can also steam them for a few minutes to liven them up : ) Report Spam or Abuse
