Sun Dried Tomato Feta And Pine Nut Salad Recipes

SUN-DRIED TOMATO, FETA AND PINE NUT SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Toss 3 cups cubed Italian bread with olive oil. Season with seasoned salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Spread out in a single layer in a well oiled 9x13 inch baking dish. Broil until toasted, turning to brown evenly. Set croutons aside to cool.
• Spread pine nuts on a baking sheet, place on bottom rack of the oven, and toast under broiler. This should only take a few minutes, so watch carefully to prevent burning. Set aside to cool.
• Soak sun-dried tomatoes in hot water for 5 to 10 minutes, or until soft. Drain, and slice.
