Love It, Like It, Hate It: Croutons

Croutons add texture and flavor to a salad, but most croutons also add a hefty dose of salty white carbs. But with a little creativity, there are plenty of other ways to add interest and crunch to a salad.  In today’s Love it, Like it, Hate it, Molly shares some of the best and worst ways to top your next salad!

LOVE IT!

• Marzetti Whole Grain Croutons

• Snappea Crisps

• Other “crouton” options include roasted nuts like pecans & walnuts, crunchy kale chips, or even beet chips.

LIKE IT!
