Fall Panzanella salad is the perfect dish to compliment the colors and flavors of the season. I added a bit of international flavor to my meal with the help of Mina’s Harissa Sauce, which adds a rich and flavorful coating to roasted sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts. Finish this meal off with baguette croutons, chickpeas, golden raisins and parsley and you’re all set!
