Panzanella Salad

Panzanella Salad

Basically a recipe of my own creation

  • 2 medium tomatoes, or 1/2 pint of cherry tomatoes, chopped into large pieces
  • 1/2 large English cucumbers, chopped into medium pieces
  • 1 medium red onion, chopped into medium pieces (and roasted in oven, optional)
  • 1 sweet red pepper, chopped into medium pieces (and roasted in oven, optional)
  • 1 pint-sized container of mini mozzarella balls (or cut a larger piece of fresh mozzarella into small chunks)
  • 1/2 stale baguette, sliced into crouton-sized pieces (if not stale/day-old, toss with olive oil and toast in oven until crunchy)
  • Optional: 2 green onions, sliced
  • Optional: fresh herbs (parsley, basil, etc.), chopped
  • Olive oil and vinegar (balsamic and sherry are a good start), to taste
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Mix everything except baguette pieces in a bowl. Allow flavors to marinate for at least 30 mins or so. Add "croutons" right before serving.
