Roasted Veggie Panzanella


Made this yesterday & also made some changes to recipe when I read reviews from Food Network. So, this is my way...and, BTW, it was delicious!

Roasted Veggie Panzanella

My Way adapted from Ree Drummond recipe


Here is what I did...

Chopped veggies in about 1" pieces, & roasted ...1 butternut squash, 1 sweet potato, 3 parsnips, 3 carrots drizzled with olive oil S&P at 400 for about 35-40 minutes. Another sheet Pan of 1 Japanese eggplant, 1 larger zucchini, 2 Roma tomatoes, 1 red onion, 1 white onion, 1 head of garlic (cut across top so I could squeeze out when roasted & reserve for dressing) EVoo, S&P. Roasted 20-25 minutes & moved Garlic to other pan for finishing baking. Cool to room temp. Cut veggies in about 1" squares or pieces.

Make Italian Cornbread.





2 Tbsp. Shortening in 10" cast iron skillet, melted over med heat.

Combine 1 cup self rising yellow cornmeal, 1/2 cup SR flour, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 cup buttermilk, 1/2 cup whole milk, 1 egg , 2 Tbsp. Chopped sun dried tomatoes packed in oil, 1/2 tsp. Dried oregano.
Add 1/4 cup melted shortening to hot skillet, cook 1 minute on stove top & transfer to oven 400 degree & bake 20 -25 minutes until golden, cool & cut into 1" squares. Place on baking sheet, drizzle lightly with EVoo & bake 10-15 minutes until crisped.

Dressing: 1/4 cup EVOO, 1 Tbsp. Red wine vinegar, roasted garlic chopped, 1/4-1/2 tsp. Kosher salt & fresh ground pepper. Shake in jar to combine.

Add croutons to roasted veggies, drizzle with dressing & toss lightly. Add 4 ounces fresh mozzarella mini balls & 8-10 Basil leaves julienned. Toss again lightly. Cover with plastic & let sit 1 hour before serving.
