Healthy Winter Panzanella
We had fun transforming and adapting the classic Italian Panzanella into a winter dish, using three of our best kitchen allies for health: cauliflower, Romanesco cauliflower, and broccoli. Just a drizzle of our Nocellara del Belice Monocultivar Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a splash of our Black Garlic Infused Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and il gioco è fatto! (As we say in Italy, “the game is done” – or rather, mission accomplished!)
