About this recipe

A great way to use up stale bread and sun-warmed tomatoes from the garden. This recipe was largely inspired by Frances Mayes' book Under the Tuscan Sun, which I love returning to again and again. Among other things, it's packed with recipes, and I always discover something new in it.
