Panzanella is an Italian bread salad, typically served in the summer with tomatoes. While this Smoked Salmon Panzanella by @Mallory.RDN strays far from the original, it packs incredible flavors into one relatively hands-off and simple dish. This recipe also works wonderfully with canned tuna, salmon, or sardines in place of smoked salmon. Za’atar is a Middle Eastern spice blend that can be made at home with thyme, sesame seeds, and sumac or bought at a spice shop.
