Had my first panzanella salad at a local restaurant and could not get enough. This recipe is exactly like that one so I was in heaven. I used balsamic vinegar instead of wine vinegar and that punched up the flavor. I also added cubed mozzarella and chopped baby English cucumbers. I thought my husband was going to start licking the serving dish when it was all gone. So easy and great on a VERY hot evening.
