Bread and egg soup
I just saw this on Martha Stewart. It's a Spanish peasant recipe. Very cheap and healthy. Take day old bread and cut in pieces of about 1". Put some olive oil in a wok type frying pan, heat and add the bread to brown. Add about 7 or 8 cloves of garlic chopped. Stir for a bit and then add chicken or vegitable stock to make a soup. Poach eggs, either separately or add to soup stock and serve a poached egg with each bowl of soup and add some parsley on top to garnish. Whalla a very inexpensive hot lunch or dinner. I suppose you could make variations of this with some vegies added, I would think it would make a good onion soup too or a can of chopped tomatoes added might make it tasty and a bit more healthy. This would be a good way to use up homemade bread that is getting a bit dry. I guess you could use stuffing mix too.
