Paleo Panzanella Bread Salad
I’ll be honest with y’all. When I got a request for bread salad I had two thoughts: 1. What the *beep* is bread salad? 2. I now need bread salad. After sleuthing around a little bit, I discovered that I do in fact need bread salad, also known as Panzanella, and that I’m guessing you might also. It is traditionally dressed with olive oil and seasoned with a simple salt and pepper combo. It can use older dried out crusty bread or can use fresher bread that’s been toasted. I, of course, used a fresh baked loaf of Legit Bread but then cubed and toasted it to give it more of a crouton texture for my Paleo Panzanella Bread Salad. It was divine and the perfect warm weather side dish.

- Once cubed, place the bread on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes or until the bread is slightly crisped
- While the bread bakes, you can combine the remaining ingredients and toss them with the oil, salt, and pepper
