    METHOD

    Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add the bread cubes. Season with salt and toss frequently for 5 to 10 minutes, or until lightly toasted.

    Combine the bread, cucumber, tomatoes, onion, and garlic in a large mixing bowl. To coat, drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper and set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow flavours to blend. Just before serving, toss in the basil, arugula, and avocado.
