I love all the ideas! Bread pudding sounds like something they would go for. I like the wrapping with some meat too. Stuffing sounds yummy to me. I know, I always have to bake 2 breads and make my own croutons to make stuffing. I had not thought about using the sticks. Yes! I will definitely need to make some into crumbs. It seems I never have bread crumbs on hand.

They look pretzel-like to me so I would try dipping them in caramel and/or chocolate for a treat

BARES

Melt butter, oregano, garlic, thyme, other herbs you enjoy, cayenne pepper if you like. Dip the bread in to coat fully and put on a foil lined cookie sheet. Bake and serve with spaghetti, with lasagna, alone . Yummy

I guess I'd eat some and make breadcrumbs out of the rest of them. I personally like breadsticks with butter.

We put ours in the refridgerator over night, and bake it in the morning. Top it with maple syrup and you have a quick French toast substitute. (Same ingredients)

Looks like these are from a German grocery website, and I'm German, so what I would do with old bread or breadsticks is to make a "semmel knodel" or bread dumpling. There are some great recipes online. I add chopped parsley to mine, saving the heel ends of bread and serving with turkey and gravy. Yummm - I want to make one now.

Left over buns never go to waste, I spread them with soft butter and garlic salt, then broil to toast them. Goes good with most any dinner. Mother used to keep a cake pan in the oven and keep adding dry bread and eventually made a wonderful layered dessert with bread crumbs, applesauce and real whipped cream. I can't duplicate it. ��

Breadcrumbs was my first thought. Spread them out on cookies sheets and allowed to dry further.

I save the last few slices of bread in a loaf, leftover hot dog and hamburger buns. Tear the bread and buns into pieces and spread out on several cookie sheets. Then I place them in the oven to dry out for 24 hours to get good and dry. Process in a food processor or my favorite....my Ninja blender!

Wrap them in prosciutto. Brush them with some melted butter and sprinkle them with some garlic salt or parmesan cheese and warm in the oven for a couple of minutes. You could also use them in a breakfast casserole. We often have it for dinner.

They are dried already. Skinny and about 24 inches tall. I will try the oil and herbs like BARES mentioned. The bread pudding will also happen and I am off to research the German dish ArtsyOne mentioned. I might just not have enough packages to try all these yummy ideas.
