Bread Salad With Tomatoes

[Fear] is Satan’s weapon held in reserve. When alluring temptations fail, he opens his quiver and shoots these arrows to set the soul on fire, if not with sin then with terror. When he cannot carry a soul laughing to hell through the deception of pleasurable temptations, he will try to make him go mourning to heaven by this amazing attack. It is a sure sign that Satan is losing. The arrows he shot at Job were of this kind. When God let the devil practice his skill, why did Satan not tempt Job with some golden apple of profit or pleasure or some other enticement? Surely the high testimony God gave about Job discouraged him from these methods. Satan had no tactic left but this.

INSTRUCTIONS

Set bread slices in the bottom of a bowl and cover them with cool
water; let stand while you make the dressing.  In another mixing bowl
combine the olive and vegetable oil, valsamic  vinegar and 1 tablespoon
of the white wine vinegar; mix and season  with salt and dried red
pepper flakes. If you don't think the bread  salad will be tangy
enough, then drizzle in more vinegar.  After 15 minutes of soaking the
bread, squeeze it dry, remove as much  of the crust as possible and cut
into large chunks. Toss into the  dressing with the red onion and
tomatoes; adjust the seasoning,  combine with the basil and let stand
for 30 minutes at room  temperature before serving.  If you wish, serve
with slices of fresh mozarella cheese for some  added protein. Recipe
