I have always loved the concept of a good, Tuscan panzanella salad to use up leftover stale bread. Over the years, I’ve played around with ingredients, and this is my favorite simple combination that allows the flavor of the heirloom tomatoes to really shine. I know “traditional” recipes use vinegar, but I prefer the lightness of the lemon juice. You can serve it ‘as is’ or spoon it on top of a bed of green. I like using arugula, to add a little bitter, peppery flavor to the recipe.
