Learn How it Works...
3 tablespoons Land O Lakes® Butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh garlic
6 (1/2-inch thick) slices Italian or Vienna bread
4 tomatoes, coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
STEP 1
Heat gas grill on low or charcoal grill until coals are ash white.
STEP 2
Combine melted butter and garlic in bowl. Brush both sides of bread slices with butter mixture.
STEP 3
Place bread onto grill. Grill, turning often, 5 minutes or until crisp and golden. Break grilled bread into small pieces.
STEP 4
Place all remaining ingredients in serving bowl; mix well. Add bread pieces; toss lightly.
Traditionally, Italian bread salad is made with stale bread. After the salad is tossed it stands for a while so the bread can soak up the juices. Let this salad stand 10-15 minutes before serving if soft, juicy croutons are desired.
