Bread and Tomato Salad image

While "bread salad" may sound unusual, you'll find that this blend from Joan Gwynn of Watsonville, California is unusually good. A simple dressing jazzes up a medley of bread cubes, tomatoes, basil and red onion.

I love that this salad is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. I like to add some chopped avocado to mine, and it's always a hit.

I added some chopped fresh mozzarella to my salad, and it was a great addition. The mozzarella added a creamy, salty flavor that complemented the tomatoes and bread perfectly.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover bread. I had some stale sourdough bread, and it worked perfectly in this salad.

I'm not a big fan of bread, but I really enjoyed this salad. The bread was soft and chewy, and it soaked up all the delicious juices from the tomatoes and dressing.

I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes, but I loved this salad. The bread and dressing balanced out the tartness of the tomatoes, and the overall flavor was very well-rounded.

I added some chopped fresh basil to the salad, and it was a great addition. The basil added a bright, herbaceous flavor that complemented the tomatoes and bread perfectly.

I was short on time, so I used store-bought croutons instead of making my own. The salad was still delicious, but I think it would have been even better with homemade croutons.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the salad turned out beautifully. The bread absorbed the juices from the tomatoes and dressing, making each bite a flavorful experience.
