Marvis in Texas asked for recipes using cherry tomatoes. This recipe comes from my sister. They an be served hot or at room temperature. They have been very popular at the last two parties we had.

Bread Salad in Cherry Tomatoes

2 Tbs olive oil
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
18 cherry tomatoes
2 Tbs chopped basil leaves
2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese
1 Tbs balsamic vinegar
1 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
6 slices firm thin sliced white bread (like Pepperidge Farm)

In a small skillet, heat oil, stir in garlic and remove from heat. Set aside.

With sharp knife, halve cherry tomatoes crosswise. Working over a medium sized bowl with grapefruit spoon, scoop out and reserve seeds and pulp. Arrange tomato halves cut side up on 2 platters. Stir garlic oil, basil, cheese, vinegar, sugar and salt into reserved pulp. Cut bread into 1/8 inch cubes and stir into tomato mixture until just combined. Divide bread salad among halves and serve.
