"Bread: I used 1 loaf of two-day old peasant bread, crust and all. It was stale but still soft, and I didn't take any further steps to dry it out (toast in oven, slice and dry out over night, etc).

Everything I used here (with the exception of the herbs and garlic scapes) got shredded in the food processor with the shredder attachment. I used one 8-oz block of Cabot cheddar cheese, which I halved lengthwise and sent down the shredder shoot as well. Some sort of breakfast meat — sausage, bacon, ham, pancetta — would be an excellent addition here...."
