And in case you are wondering what to do with your leftover holiday bread, Panera Bread offers these tips:

·  Make your own croutons: Cut bread into cube-shaped pieces, toss with olive oil, salt and pepper, and scatter on a baking sheet. Bake at 350°F until golden brown (about 10 minutes). Croutons made from Whole Grain, Honey Wheat and Stone-Milled Rye make wonderful salad toppings.

·  Create crostini: It’s a fancy term for the miniature toasts used in bruschetta and French onion soup. To make your own, slice the bread into ¼-inch rounds, brush with oil or butter and brown on a baking sheet in a 350°F oven.

·  Float bread boats: Leftover bread makes a perfect addition to fresh soup. When it’s ready to serve, add a few small chunks. The bread will absorb the flavors and add a savory layer of texture. Try Sourdough with chicken soup!

·  Craft crumbs: Pulse leftover bread in a food processor. Store in the freezer and add to dishes that need extra flavor or crunch. For instance, add crumbs to a meatball recipe. Or scatter crumbs made from Tomato Basil bread atop macaroni and cheese and bake until crunchy brown.

From December 14-24 Panera Bread will be offering fresh, homemade dinner rolls. To find the location closest to you, click here.
