Steps:
- Place the tomatoes and mozzarella in a large bowl. Put the garlic, mustard, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a 1-cup glass measuring cup and slowly whisk in the 1/2 cup of olive oil. Set aside.
- Heat the remaining 1/3 cup of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan until hot but not smoking. Add the bread cubes and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Saute over medium to medium-high heat for 5 to 8 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the bread is evenly browned and crisp. Add the warm bread to the tomatoes and mozzarella. Add enough of the vinaigrette to moisten all the ingredients. Add the basil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss carefully, adding more vinaigrette if necessary. Serve at room temperature.
LEBANESE-STYLE BREAD SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND HERBS
Ripe tomatoes, cool cucumbers and toasted pita bread, or Middle-Eastern bread salad. To be completely authentic, this Lebanese dish that is served in various forms across the region should also contain a sprinkling of reddish powdered sumac, which has a sour, lemony flavor and is available from good spice merchants. Fresh purslane, a slightly sour green succulent plant, is also traditional to the dish. You can sometimes get it at farmers markets, or find it growing wild. (It volunteers itself in most vegetable gardens.) But neither is required.

PANZANELLA (BREAD AND TOMATO SALAD)
Panzanella is a zingy and delicious tomato-and-bread salad that's perfect for summertime. Using crusty artisan-style sourdough bread takes it up a notch, along with ripe tomatoes, olive oil, vinegar, and a variety of vegetables you might have on hand. This recipe makes two servings, but feel free to scale up for big crowds.

Steps:
- Chop the tomatoes and combine them in a bowl with the salt. This will draw some of the liquid out of the tomatoes, making a more flavorful dressing for the bread to absorb.
- Toast your bread slices or bake them at 300F for 15 minutes. I ran a regular toast cycle and simply left the bread inside to dry for more time while I prepped the rest of the ingredients.
- In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, vinegar and optional minced garlic.
- Chop your vegetables and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes: cucumber, green pepper, onion. You can dice or slice the onion based on whether you prefer the onion concentrated or spread through the salad.
- Tear or chiffonade the basil leaves (again a matter of personal preference), and add them to the bowl.
- Tear the bread into small chunks and add to the salad bowl. Mix everything to allow the tomato juices to enter the bread. It's fine if the bread chunks are still warm.
- Add the olive oil-vinegar-garlic dressing and optional bread crumbs, and toss again.
- Season with fresh ground black pepper and serve.
FATTOUSH (LEBANESE TOMATO AND PITA SALAD)
For millions of Muslims in the United States, food takes on a new significance during Ramadan. Fasting during this time is one of the five pillars of Islam, along with devotion to Allah, prayer, giving alms and visiting Mecca. Soup or salad, like the fattoush made with tomatoes and pita bread, is a light way to break the fast.
