Step 1
Heat a skillet over medium-high. Toss bread cubes with 2 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt.
Step 2
Toast croutons, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy all over, about 4 minutes.
Step 3
Transfer croutons to a paper towel. Add tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and vinegar to a blender.
Step 4
Blend until smooth, about 45 seconds. Drizzle in remaining 4 tbsp oil while blending until emulsified.
Step 5
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Thin with cold water if needed (soup should pour easily).
Step 6
Chill until serving. Top each bowl with crispy croutons and a drizzle of olive oil.
