When is a celebrity going to name their kid Panzanella? It's about time, right? There is a human being named Reality Winner living amongst us, after all. We could call her 'Zanella' for short. Or him, I'm not trying to assume Panza would be a girl.
What am I saying. I'm so tired I don't even use question marks when I'm supposed to anymore. I type nonsense about children being named after bread salads. I blog once every 17 days (but don't worry, almost every day I have that moment when I'm not sure if I put on deodorant).
Let's be serious, though, and less gross, and talk about how underrated bread salads are. A leafy green usually takes the spotlight when it comes to salads but in this case a crusty, crunchy bread is paired with sweet, juicy tomatoes, crunchy peppers and onions and a tangy, garlicky dressing. I added loads of creamy mozzarella and some diced avocado to mine, because I win at life. I followed Her Highness Ina's recipe, however this is a really versatile salad that's easy to throw together with a number of things in your fridge. You can use store-boght croutons or toast up a nice sliced bread or baguette you happen to have on hand. My favorite part of this particular recipe are the salty capers and the fresh basil - it's really the perfect summer dish or future name for your child.
