Fruagal-Delicious Ways To Use Crumbs


Don't throw away those crumbs!!! Here's a list of things to do with all those crumbs.  I throw mine in a ziploc baggie and save them for a rainy day.

Cookie Crumbs ---Use as ice cream toppers!

Chip Crumbs --- Use them as casserole toppers!

Bread Crumbs/Stale bread --- Use as croutons - Dab with olive oil and some seasoning and bake in over til nice and crunchy!  Also, you could give em a whirl in home made meatballs!

Cracker crumbs --- Also, a great casserole topper!  Or appetizer toppers- ex. stuffed mushrooms

Left over Cake Crumbs --- Great for decorating cakes

Sweet Cereal Crumbs/dusting--- Ex. Fruity Pebbles- Great again for ice cream topping or even cupcakes!

Unsweet Cereal Crumbs/dusting--- Ex. corn flakes- Use with your flour for fried chicken

Donut Crumbs--- Use as a topping for other donuts!!  Nuke them in the microwave softens them up.  Also, you could use them as toppers crumb cake dishes!

Ha! I would never have crumbs like that after eating cookies! The crumbs would be placed in my hand and quickly into my mouth!

Great ideas. I am definitely guilty of eating or tossing my crumbs, depending on which kind you are discussing!

Great ideas! Hey, if you mix buttery cracker crumbs with a chopped hard-boiled egg, then add it to cooked cauliflower (with extra butter if you want!), you get Cauliflower Polanaise (Polish-style), which is the most yummy way of eating cauliflower ever!
