Honey Tips
Honey Is Magic
In the days before biology and botany were understood, people thought it was a special kind of magic that turned flower nectar into honey.
Directions
Heat oven to 350°. Lightly coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
Place bread cubes on baking sheet and bake 8 minutes, stirring once. Remove from oven, and let cool.
Whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, pepper, scallions and garlic. Slowly add olive oil, whisking until dressing is thick.
Place tomatoes and toasted bread cubes in a bowl. Drizzle with dressing. Toss. Add fresh basil and toss again. Let sit 5 minutes to let bread absorb dressing.
