I love the addition of the capers and olives. They add a nice salty and briny flavor to the salad.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover bread. I always have a loaf of sourdough on hand, so this is a go-to recipe for me.

I'm not usually a fan of bread salads, but this one changed my mind. The dressing is so flavorful and the bread is perfectly chewy.

This panzanella salad was a hit at my last potluck! The flavors were so fresh and summery, and the bread soaked up the dressing perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.
