Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cube the bread and toss in the ½ cup olive oil. Spread out on a large backing tray and toast in the oven until the bread is golden brown. Make sure to toss every few minutes to ensure even browning.
  2. While the bread is toasting, combine the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, capers, sweety drop peppers, and chopped basil in a large bowl and gently mix.
  3. Next, combine all the ingredients for the vinaigrette in a small bowl and pour over the vegetables. Once the bread is toasted and cooled slightly, place in the large bowl with vegetables and gently toss to coat. Place the salad on a large serving platter and sprinkle with radish sprouts. Enjoy!
