Ingredients
croutons
- 1 baguette French, cubed
- 2 teaspoons thyme dried
- 1 teaspoon rosemary dried
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon oregano dried
- 3 ½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
salad
- 6 ounces mozzarella ciliegine (small mozzarella balls), patted dry and sliced in half
- 8 ounces cherry tomato sliced in half
- 1 cucumber hot house, cubed
balsamic vinaigrette
- ½ shallot finely diced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- ⅓ cup balsamic vinegar good quality
- ⅔ cup extra virgin olive oil
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Place cubed baguette into a large bowl and sprinkle with thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, and oregano. Gently toss together.
- Drizzle oil over bread mixture and season with salt and pepper. Toss together until fully combined.
- Pour mixture onto a baking sheet, in single layer (you may need two baking sheets) and bake for about 20 minutes, stirring every 5 to 7 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. (It’s okay if the croutons are still slightly soft when you pull them from the oven, they’ll crisp up eve more once cooled).
- Set aside and allow croutons to cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl combine croutons, mozzarella, tomatoes, and cucumber and toss together. Set aside.
- For the vinaigrette: Place shallot, garlic, brown sugar, and balsamic in a small bowl and whisk together. While whisking add oil, in a slow and steady drizzle, until fully incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.
- About 30 minutes before you’re ready to serve, pour vinaigrette over salad and toss together until well coated.
- Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
- **Note: Adding the vinaigrette to the salad prior to serving won’t make your croutons soggy! This will just allow the flavors of the salad to marry together before you
