Raspberry Vinegarette (see recipe)
French Bread
2 Tomatoes
1 Red Onion
Greens of your choice, we like the spring mix.
4 Tbsp Butter
4 tbsp olive oil
6 cloves garlic diced
Directions:
Slice bread into 1 inch slices. Slice tomatoes and red onion into 1/2 inch slices. melt butter with garlic in either microwave or on bbq cook top. Add olive oil to the butter and garlic once melted. Using a brush, brush on garlic butter to sides of bread, tomatoes and onion while BBQ on highest heat setting on your grill. The goal is to sear the outside. Once items are browned pull off grill and cut into 1 inch cubes. To serve first set bread down, then top with greens, followed by tomatoes & onion. If you would would like to add meat simply grill it to your liking and add on top. This is a great summer twist on the usual table salad.
