Ingredients
  

Dressing

Salad

  • 6 cups lettuce mix of iceberg and romaine, chopped
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 large red or yellow bell pepper
  • 1 small cucumber diced
  • 12 ounces mini mozzarella balls drained and halved
  • 1 cup freshly shaved Parmesan cheese
  • ¾ cup pitted black or green olives halved
  • 1 can drained chickpeas
  • 6 ounces salami cut into matchsticks
  • 1 ounce fresh basil leaves sliced into ribbons

Instructions
 

  • Make the dressing. In a glass jar with a tight fitting lid or a medium bowl, combine the oil, vinegar, garlic, mustard, salt, and pepper. Vigorously shake or whisk until mixed well.
  • Make the salad. In a large bowl, combine the romaine, tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, both cheeses, olives, salami, and basil. Toss gently to combine.
    OPTIONAL: Add in pickled onions, chopped pepperoncini or other ingredients. This would also be tasty with shredded chicken.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until well coated. Serve immediately, or store refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
