Anytime a recipe calls for regular breadcrumbs I prefer to make my own. They taste fresher and less dry than their container counterpart. I haven't always done this: Several years ago I needed breadcrumbs and reached into my pantry for the store bought crumbs.

This layered dish of bread, eggs, cheese, meat, and vegetables is not only crave-worthy, comforting breakfast food at its best, but, as a casserole, it's also a great timesaver — forget making custom batches of scrambled eggs!

So many breads these days are made with enriched flour, corn syrup, and other not-so-healthy ingredients. So if you can make your own, it's so much better for you. Baking your own bread from scratch can be really time-consuming though, since you have to mix the dough, knead it, and wait for it to rise.
