Ingredients
Panzanella salad
- 3 cups bread cubed, crusty
- 2 tomatoes ripe, save tomato juice for dressing
- 1 red onion sliced
- ½ cup zucchini diced
- 1 avocado diced
- ¼ cup fresh basil
- ½ teaspoon salt adjust to taste
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper adjust to taste
Red wine vinaigrette
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ½ cup olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt adjust to taste
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper adjust to taste
Instructions
To make panzanella salad
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Spread the cubed bread out on a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until crispy and golden.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, diced zucchini, avocado, and fresh basil leaves. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
To make red wine vinaigrette
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic (if using).
- Drizzle in the olive oil while whisking the mixture continuously until the vinaigrette is emulsified and well combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Add bread cubes, and red wine vinaigrette to the mixing bowl and toss to combine well. Serve fresh or chilled.
Notes
- Crispy bread: Skip stale, go oven-dried for texture! I've found that oven-dried bread just has better texture.
- Salt & drain for tangy, juicy chunks. Use the juice in the vinaigrette to enhance the flavors.
- Chilled or room temp: Serve your way, both are delish!
