Traditionally, a panzanella salad is an Italian salad of juicy tomatoes and chopped, stale bread. In this version, we substitute torn pieces of baked falafel for the bread, creating a delicious Mediterranean mash-up dish.
4 medium-large tomatoes, chopped into bite-sized pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 cucumber, diced
1 batch of prepared, baked falafel (about 15 small patties), torn into large pieces
¼ cup chopped basil
