Garlic Bread Salad with Tomatoes
- About 1/2 pound crusty bread (slightly stale is fine)
- 1 garlic clove, cut in half
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice or good-quality vinegar
- 2 tomatoes, roughly chopped
- Salt and black pepper
- 1/4 cup or more roughly chopped fresh basil or parsley leaves
- Rub the bread all over with the garlic and toast or grill until crunchy and lightly browned.
- Cut or tear the bread into 1/2- to 1-inch cubes (no larger) and toss it with the remaining ingredients.
- Taste, adjust the seasoning, and serve within 15 minutes.
- Trim about 1/2 pound green beans and cut them into 1/2-inch lengths.
- Drop into boiling salted water and cook until bright green and just tender, about 5 minutes.
- Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking.
- Drain again, then toss into the salad.
