Today I have an ENTERTAINING TIP! You all know we love that warm bread when we have that glorious meal set before us! Yes, we know that it rarely stays warm through the entire meal. Sure you can cover it with a towel but that doesn’t really work. There are those expensive bread warmers you can buy but trust me, you can create your own.

Simply wrap dried beans in a tea towel and heat them in the microwave. Time depends on the amount of beans and size of your microwave. Just start with 1-2 minutes and judge from there. Place the bundled warmed beans in the bottom of your bread basket and it will keep your bread warm throughout the meal!
