Bourbon Chicken with Broccoli

The Frugal Girl

This recipe has been on my menu posts multiple times, and you all have asked for the recipe more than once.

Five Frugal Things | are croutons a garnish?

The Frugal Girl

1. I made a single serving of croutons for my soup I made a pot of this butternut squash soup for myself, to use a squash that came in my Hungry Harvest box. Zoe doesn’t like butternut squash, so it’s all up to me in this department. I noticed there was a small piece of baguette left, so I cut it up and made some quick skillet croutons to put on top of my soup.
