This panzanella salad from Shut Up and Cook is a delicious way to use up stale bread. Cubes of bread are tossed with a variety of salad fixings including red onion, garbanzo beans, kalamata olives and tomatoes. The vinaigrette gets soaked up by the bread, turning the cubes into tender, tasty morsels. You can use a variety of breads for this recipe including ciabatta, French bread, or even cornbread.
