Ingredients

5 C. (about 4 oz.) cubed stale country bread such as levain
1⁄3 C. extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
12 oz. colorful heirloom tomatoes, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 small cucumber (6 oz.), peeled, seeded, and cut into 1⁄2” dice
3⁄4 C. (4 oz.) crumbled feta cheese
1⁄3 C. pitted green olives, chopped
1⁄3 C. diced red onion
2 Tbsp. capers, drained and rinsed
2 Tbsp. minced fresh lemon or regular thyme
2 Tbsp. minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 Tbsp. minced fresh chives
1 Tbsp. minced fresh basil
2 tsp. minced fresh oregano
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Put the bread in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil and lemon juice together. Pour over the bread and toss to coat well. Stir in all the remaining ingredients, reserving a small portion of the feta and herbs to use as garnish. Let stand for 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Divide among 6 small bowls and garnish with the reserved feta and herbs.
