Ingredients
- 1 bunch basil, leaves picked & stems diced
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp red-wine vinegar
- Sea salt & black pepper
- 150g stale sourdough, diced
- 600g ripe mixed tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp capers, drained

Method
- Preheat oven to 180ºC.

- Toss through the dressing and serve.
- Tip: You can easily make this gluten-free by using gluten-free bread for the croutons.
