What makes a great salad? We like to think that it’s the opportunity to highlight the season’s best produce. From cookout salads loaded with grilled veggies to make-ahead pasta salads that feed a crowd, there’s no shortage of fresh, salad-ready fruits and vegetables during the summer months. Have a bounty of garden-fresh cukes? Make a cucumber salad. Can’t get enough of those peak-of-season tomatoes? Caprese is calling your name. Want to elevate plain, old watermelon wedges? You can’t go wrong with a refreshing watermelon salad. Whatever you decide, you’ll find that a summer salad is always welcome at the table. One of our favorites? Ina’s panzanella—which is almost too pretty to eat. She tosses crunchy bread cubes with crisp veggies, aromatic basil and a tangy Dijon vinaigrette for a simple-yet-stunning side that’s ideal for summer weeknight dinners and outdoor entertaining alike.
