Ingredients

8 ounces ciabatta or other dense crusty Italian bread (not sourdough), sliced in 1/2 inch slices

1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 cup cherry tomato halves (or diced whole tomatoes)

2 green onions, chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt and coarsely ground black pepper

1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh basil leaves

Directions

Heat the grill to medium-high. Brush the bread on both sides with 1/4 cup olive oil. Place on the grill and grill until well toasted, being careful not to burn it; turning as needed. Cut into 1/2 inch cubes.

In a large bowl whisk together the remaining olive oil and red wine vinegar. Add the tomatoes, onions and garlic; season with salt and a generous amount of black pepper. Add the bread cubes and basil, toss to combine. Serve immediately.
