Prepare the Salad and Dressing
Combine all the above-mentioned ingredients and drizzle the dressing on top.
Directions
To Make Homemade Croutons
Cut bread into bite-sized pieces and toss into a large bowl.
In a separate container, combine olive oil and some favorite spices, such as oregano, basil, thyme, garlic, and of course salt. Shake/stir really well to get all the flavors combined.
Pour dressing over the bread cubes and shake up to evenly distribute the flavor. Spread out the croutons on a baking tray or casserole dish. Bake at 200–225 degrees Celsius (400–450 degrees Fahrenheit).
After about seven to 10 minutes, shake the tray to make sure croutons are evenly cooked. Feel free to drizzle another bit of olive oil on them!
Bake another seven to 10 minutes, until they reach the color and crispness that you prefer.
Notes:
To check figs: After slicing, check the inside of the fig for webbing or obvious signs of insect damage. According to the OU, if none is seen the fig may be used.

Since fresh figs aren't in season in the US on Tu B'shvat, has anyone tried this with dried figs, maybe soaked in hot water first?
It should still be delicious with dried figs, obviously not the same as fresh but still tasty!
