Pan bagna (recipe in the comments)
Brussel sprouts
Peach ice cream
______________________________________________________________
This is a wonderful Mediterranean inspired sandwich. You mix a vinaigrette with tuna, tomatoes, olives, and some other vegetables combine that tasty mixture with crumbs from the interior of a loaf of bread. The filling is then reloaded into the bread and served as a sandwich. It's truly yummy and very easy to prepare. This is a another recipe with no cooking involved, so it's great on a hot night. We usually have it with cold artichokes, that I've made that day or the night before. I lost track of time yesterday and hadn't made them, so we had brussel sprouts from the freezer instead. Since M and I love brussel sprouts, this was no hardship. We'll ahve the artichokes tomorrow.
Prep Notes
Difficulty: Easy
Chopping: Tomato, pepper, scallions, garlic, olives, thyme (if fresh)
Time: 25 minutes
Make ahead: I make the filling and then add the crumbs last minute and load it into the bread just before serving. You can eat this the next day, but it's not quite as good.
Reaction
J: "Truly summer."
M: "The perfect summer dinner."
