Tuna & Caper Panzanella
"A quick no-cook salad that is a meal in itself. A great picnic or lunch dish for a summer's day. You need firm bread with a good structure for this salad as a softer loaf will disintegrate. If you don't have ciabatta, use any country loaf with a good crust, or pita bread."

I live in Manchester, UK with my fiance and young son. I work at the local hospital in pediatrics and love my job. I also love cooking!! I have a sweet tooth but try and make healthy family meals, I'm not against some lovely treats now and then though :)
