If you are following us on Instagram (and I really don’t know why you wouldn’t be; we’re delightful and you’ll see lots of photos of Charlie, Penny and us too), then you know Ethan has taken up making sourdough bread since the pandemic began. This Panzanella Salad recipe came about out of desire to use up all the ends from the sourdough boules that Ethan has been making weekly. Even though we are now back at work, Ethan is still baking using the starter he made from scratch that we named Lucille. Every Sunday, Ethan makes two loaves of delicious sourdough to last us through the week. We work our way through the loaves only to be left with end pieces that are too small to use for sandwiches or breakfast toast. I made croutons with some, but even if we had salads every day, we would not get through

Spaghetti squash is one of of those vegetables that I buy and then stare at on the counter for weeks before actually using. Recently I decided to just have some fun with it and made Spaghetti Squash with Greens and Garbanzos. I used kale as my greens, but I really like the alliteration of Spaghetti Squash with Greens and Garbanzos. It sounds better than Spaghetti Squash with Kale and Chickpeas (garbanzos and chickpeas are the same thing).
