Panzanella

This delicious salad was first introduced to us by Dr. Yum herself in one of her very first project newsletters in 2014. It is a traditional panzanella or bread salad, which uses fresh ingredients straight from your summer garden or the farmers market! You can also find these ingredients in the grocery store year-round so you can have a taste of summer anytime. This salad is a perfect side for grilled chicken or fish, but it is also complete enough to be a light meal on its own. It is a very flexible salad, so feel free to add different vegetable ingredients or switch up the flavors by using a different vinegar or another type of cheese, like mozzarella or feta. You could also try different types of crusty bread like ciabatta, cheese bread, or a multigrain loaf.
