- For the vinaigrette, whisk all the ingredients together in a large (salad-sized) bowl.
- Add the cut up tomatoes, red onion, basil, and capers to the dressing bowl. Toss, then salt the tomatoes with an additional ½ teaspoon salt to bring out the juices. Let sit while you prepare the vegetables.
- Slice the vegetables about ¼ inch thick on a diagonal. Brush with 1 Tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano, salt & pepper.
- Add the bread cubes and fresh mozzarella if using to the salad bowl and toss with the vinaigrette and tomato mixture. Top with the Parmesan shavings.
- Grill the eggplant and zucchini for a few minutes on each side, until tender. Add the grilled vegetables and roasted pepper to the salad, or serve alongside and let people combine for themselves.
