Seared Beef Panzanella Salad (Gluten Free, Dairy Free)

seared beef panzanella salad

Hello everyone, welcome to my latest recipe for this delicious Gluten Free and Dairy Free Seared Beef Panzanella Salad. This is a traditional Italian dish where stale bread is soaked in a mixture of olive oil and vinegar. It is usually served with tomatoes and onion, sometimes cucumber. My recipe is a little different and I've added in some spinach, roasted peppers and some seared beef. I had this outside in the garden for dinner at the weekend to enjoy the last of the sunny weather.
