Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 piece stale, rustic whole-grain bread, cut into 1 inch cubes (6 ounces)
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1 Tbsp. dried oregano

Cooking Instructions

In a large bowl, mix the water with 2 tablespoons of the vinegar. Swirl the bread cubes in the vinegar water, then drain the bread in a colander, gently squeezing out any excess moisture.
