Ingredients

  • 8 oz sourdough bread, cubed
  • 1 lb peaches, quartered
  • 1 lb tomatoes, quartered
  • 2 medium shallots, minced
  • 1/2 cup basil leaves, left whole
  • 4 oz bocconcini (small mozzarella balls), quartered
  • 3 Tbsp EVOO
  • 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. On a cookie sheet, lay out bread cubes in a single layer and spray with cooking spray. Bake 10 minutes, until crisp, and then broil for 1-2 minutes to brown. Remove and let cool.
  2. Meanwhile in a large bowl, add peaches, tomatoes, shallots, basil and bocconcini and toss gently. In a small bowl, whisk EVOO, vinegar and SnP together.
  3. To assemble, add bread cubes to salad and pour dressing over top. Toss gently and serve immediately. If bringing to a party or eating later, mix everything together except the bread cubes. Refrigerate until ready to use and toss in bread cubes at the last minute before serving.
