Tomato and Garlic Crouton Salad,Recipe courtesy Brian Boitano 2009–Show: What Would Brian Boitano Make?Episode: Handyman Special. Brian was a skating Olymipic champion who loves to cook and now has his own show. He served this to get into a supper club. What a hoot to watch Brian make his dishes. This one caught my eye!,Oh Sharon ~ this salad is divine! It’s so simple to make and the flavors are just wonderful. I made as posted except I left my olives whole. used regular mozzarella that I cubed. I would recommend using a good olive oil. Thank you for posting a keeper that I’ll make often!
