Ingredients
- 1 loaf very crusty Italian bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 6 tomatoes, cut into wedges
- cucumber, halved, seeded and thinly sliced
- Block of Parmesan cheese, for shaving
- 25 basil leaves, cut into chiffonade
- 1/2 red onion, very thinly sliced
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 275.
-
Arrange the bread cubes on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle them lightly with olive oil and bake for 20-25 minutes or until crisped slightly. Set aside to cool.
-
Next, make the super-simple dressing: Place the olive oil, vinegar, and salt and pepper in a jar and shake for 30-45 seconds, until it’s totally combined.
-
Place the bread cubes in a large bowl and throw in the tomatoes.
-
Add the cucumber, then shave in a good amount of Parmesan and add the basil.
-
Drizzle the dressing all over the top and toss until everything is combined.
-
Finally, toss in the red onion. Cover the bowl and let it sit at room temp for an hour before serving.
