Panzanella and Sweet Potato Pancakes

More Delicious Vegetable Dishes!!

Eat this as soon as you possibly can. I actually made it twice in the last week. It's just too good.

Panzanella is a Florentine salad of bread and tomatoes popular in the summer. It includes chunks of soaked stale bread and tomatoes, sometimes also onions and basil, dressed with olive oil and vinegar. It is popular all over central Italy. I had it at a potluck last spring and searched out the recipe.

It's totally vegan. But you can add some diced fresh Mozz if you want it to be richer and a bit heavier. I like it both ways. FRESH FRESH FRESH is what this salad is.


I also made Sweet Potato Pancakes this weekend.  The best thing EVER to do with leftovers... fry them up. :)

Mash sweet potatoes, add some chopped onion, and egg/egg-substitute, some flour; fry in veggie oil till golden brown.

Tomorrow, my fashion/style/sewing report is back.
See you then,
Happy New Year,
