8. Tuna Panzanella
This is a summer classic salad that uses up stale bread. When you add tuna, you ramp up the protein and make it a meal. Cut the crusts from 4 to 6 slices of rustic bread and tear into chunks. Sprinkle with just enough water to moisten. Allow to rest for five minutes. Squeeze out any excess water and mix with one large onion, finely chopped; one or two tomatoes, chopped; 6-ounce can of tuna, drained; one small green or red pepper, chopped; two scallions, sliced, and one small cucumber, peeled and diced. Add olive oil and wine vinegar to taste, along with salt and pepper. Chill, sprinkle with parsley or any other herb and serve. Makes about 4 servings.
Yum.
