Cuisine French, Italian
Kitchen knife
Mixing bowl
Baking sheet
- 3 handfuls Baby Spinach
- 1/4 loaf Artisan Bread
- 2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
- 1/2 sliced Peach
- 1 bunch Fresh Basil
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- 2 tsp Balsamic Vinegar
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 300. Slice or tear the bread into roughly 1 inch cubes (this is great for using up stale bread!). Placing in a large mixing bowl, toss lightly in olive oil and spread out over the baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes, tossing throughout to make sure all is evenly cooked.
While the bread is baking, slice tomatoes, place in the mixing bowl, and toss with olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.
Once bread is dried, add to the tomato mix and coat well.
Serve over a bed of spinach, topped with sliced peaches and thinly sliced basil leaves. Variation-great with fresh chunks of goat cheese or feta!
