Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 heirloom tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup cooked artichokes
  • 1/2 small red onion
  • 1 cup arugula
  • 2 tbsp basil for topping
  • 1 medium ball of buffalo mozzarella

The bread

  • A couple slices stale bread
  • olive oil
  • red pepper flakes
  • sea salt and pepper
  • oregano

The vinaigrette

  • 1/4 cup kalamata olives
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 small garlic clove

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400. Cut bread into cubes and drizzle with enough olive oil to be coated. Season with red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Bake for about 7-10 min or until golden brown. Remove and let cool
  • Slice red onions and add to a bowl with water to remove some of their sharpness.
  • Make your vinaigrette by mashing olives and garlic into a paste and combining. Add lemon juice and olive oil and mix. Taste test and add more olive oil if needed.
  • Slice tomatoes and artichokes. Break up mozzarella into pieces and add to a bowl. Then add arugula, tomatoes, onions, artichokes and bread. Top with vinaigrette and less sit for about 30 min.
