  • None
  • 10 basil leaves, rolled up and thinly sliced (chiffonade)

  1. In a large mixing bowl combine bread, tomatoes, mozzarella, arugula, basil, and season with salt and pepper and the olive oil, juice and vinegar. Mix well. At this stage you may set the salad aside to marinate, allowing the bread cubes to soak up the flavor of the dressing.
