Tuna & Caper Panzanella Recipe #357050
A quick no-cook salad that is a meal in itself. A great picnic or lunch dish for a summer's day. You need firm bread with a good structure for this salad as a softer loaf will disintegrate. If you don't have ciabatta, use any country loaf with a good crust, or pita bread.
