Italian salad with croutons, cherry tomatoes and cheese

Gourmets will appreciate it! A simple recipe for a delicious salad! This is my favorite Italian salad from the whole range of salads, where hot croutons are added. It is with these ingredients that their taste is revealed more vividly. I did not hesitate to ask for this recipe for Italian salad in an Italian restaurant, where I often celebrate my own birthday. The most amazing thing is that the cooks there don't make any secret of their dishes. They wrote down the recipe for me, told me, as if even with an elusive challenge, "Try it!", but with all this with respectful respect.

3. Mix olive oil with mayonnaise and season the salad with it. Add salt and pepper.
