3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil

salt and pepper to taste
6 1/2" slices thick sliced Italian bread,
lightly toasted, cut 1/2" cubes (4c)Recipe
A good quality garlic crouton can be substituted for the bread, but it is better made with fresh Italian bread. Bread, after being lightly toasted, should still be a little soft in the center. In a bowl, stir together all but bread until blended. Cover bowl and refrigerate for several hours. Just before serving, toss in the bread. Serves 6.
