Slice the tomatoes in half, gently squeeze out the seeds and then chop the tomatoes. Mince the garlic and tear the basil leaves.

Toast the bread in the oven or toaster, lightly moisten the bread with water, and then slice the bread into bite-size pieces.

Place the bread in a salad bowl and add the chopped tomatoes, capers, basil and minced garlic. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, toss and serve.
