I'm taking a break from all the nature photography to offer up a recipe I made from my last good haul of tomatoes from my garden (a few weeks ago). It's called Panzanella salad -- it is easy to make and you can add or subtract from this recipe as you please:
Gather heirloom tomatoes and fresh basil from the garden, red onion, garlic, green olives, and fresh mozzarella -- chop, chop, chop. Blend olive oil and balsamic vinegar, add salt and pepper. Mix it all up. Use day old crusty bread and chunk it up. Mix the bread in a few minutes before serving. It soaks up all the juices and softens up. This salad doesn't really keep more than a day because the bread gets too soft -- but don't worry -- it disappears quickly. Healthy and delicious!!!
See, I told you it is easy! You could also use cucumber or bell pepper and feta cheese instead of mozzarella. It is really up to you. Look around the internet for other recipes to see the variations or if you are the kind of person who wants to know specific measurements.
