Instructions

Place broccoli in a large bowl and drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and toss to coat, spoon onto large baking sheet. In the same bowl as the broccoli was tossed, add the tomatoes and toss to coat with olive oil left in the bowl (don’t add any more oil); drizzle tomatoes with 1 teaspoon honey and toss to coat. Scrap tomatoes onto the same baking sheet as broccoli.
Roast in a preheated 425 degrees F oven for 20 minutes or until broccoli is slightly charred on the tips and tender-crisp. Place vegetables on a serving plate or bowl; add bread and toss gently.
Whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons oil, vinegar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon honey. Pour over salad and toss gently. Sprinkle with cheese and oregano.
