This simple panzanella (Italian bread salad) mimics the flavors of a BLT nearly perfectly. Old French bread and halved grape tomatoes are seared in bacon fat to add another dimension to this salad, and the subtle addition of basil (easily substituted with other herbs of your choice) give a nice twist. This is a fabulous way to use those last tomatoes lingering on your counter (a friendly message: never store tomatoes in the refrigerator – this causes an irreversible decline in flavor and texture), the tempting heirlooms at the farmer’s market, and the final tomatoes on sale at the grocery store.
