For cardamom and nutmeg, bread and oil would not work well. They're usually used in baking - cakes, sweet breads, cookies, or sweet beverages - spiced cider, chai, spiced hot chocolate.

I'd suggest sprinkling them on something sweet-ish, like rice pudding, vanilla pudding, yogurt, applesauce, etc. Pre-ground or grated cardamom loses flavor within a couple weeks, so try to get it as fresh as possible if you don't want to grind it yourself.
