Panzanella Salad is a refreshing taste of summer that transforms stale bread into a culinary delight!

1

Start by tearing the stale bread into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large bowl.

2

Dice the tomatoes and cucumber, then thinly slice the red onion. Add these vegetables to the bowl with the bread.

3

Chop the basil roughly and add it to the bowl as well.

4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper.

5

Pour the dressing over the bread and vegetable mixture, gently tossing everything together until well combined.

6

Let the salad sit for about 15 minutes so the flavors meld and the bread absorbs the dressing.

7

After 15 minutes, give it one last toss and serve fresh.
