Bruschetta Salad

I am not a salad eater at all but this is my favorite salad. When we were younger, my mom always made a salad with dinner. I would love to soak up the oil and vinegar with Italian bread and eat it. To me, nothing tasted better. This salad is the same concept. The bread soaks up the oil and vinegar and the flavors of the onion and tomato. It is delicious!

Footnotes - Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving. You may also add cucumber slices and or fresh mozzarella. You can substitute shaved Parmesan cheese for the shredded.
