Ingredients
3/4 cup mayonnaise

3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
4 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1 (10-ounce) bag chopped romaine lettuce

Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 475 degrees. Spread 1/4 cup mayonnaise over both sides of bread slices and transfer to baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then cut into 1-inch croutons.
