Number Of Ingredients 15

3 cups cubed crusty bread
¼ cup olive oil, as needed
3 cloves garlic, minced
kosher salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed
1 English cucumber - peeled, seeded, and sliced
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
2 small yellow tomatoes, cut into wedges
1 red onion, cut into wedges
¾ cup pitted kalamata olives
¼ cup capers, drained
¾ cup fresh mozzarella balls (bocconcini)
¼ cup red wine vinegar

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use less dressing. It was a bit too oily for my taste.

This dish was a disappointment. The asparagus was tough and the tomatoes were bland. The dressing was also very oily and lacked flavor. I would not recommend this recipe.
