At work, we had a Christmas feast, catered in, for about 300 employees. Afterwards, the caterers were cleaning up, and I saw one of them hauling a HUGE bag of dinner rolls out. I asked her what she was going to do with them, and she said they were headed to the dumpster.
Well, my inner packrat got the better of me, so I asked her if I could have them, and she gave them to me. There were about 200 rolls in that bag!
I'm planning to let them dry out and crumble them up for the compost pile.
QUESTION: I'm guessing these rolls are a "green", but not a "super green" like cow manure or grass clippings. Bread has lots of carbs but little or no protien, so I'm also guessing it will be a good energy source for the micro-critters. Does anyone have an opinion on this?
Another crazy idea I had was to put them in a couple of 5 gallon buckets, get them good and wet, add some blood meal, and mix it all up into a mush with a paint auger. Then, I can pour the slurry into the midst of the pile next time I turn it. Think that will work?
Any of you other mad scientists out there have a better idea how to use these rolls? Thanks!
