Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, toss bread cubes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated. Spread in a single layer on a large baking sheet. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Bake in preheated oven until golden brown and toasted, about 10 minutes. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Transfer toasted bread to a large bowl and gently mix with strawberries, tomatoes, feta cheese, and red onion. (5 minutes)

05

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, red wine vinegar, and honey until emulsified. Drizzle over the bread and tomato salad. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Gently toss to coat all ingredients evenly. Serve immediately for the best texture, or let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the bread cubes instead of baking them.
If you don't have red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar makes a great substitute.
Fresh basil adds a wonderful aroma and taste to this salad. Consider adding a handful of chopped basil leaves.
This salad is best enjoyed the same day it is made, as the bread can become soggy over time. However, you can prepare the dressing and chop the vegetables in advance.
