Antipasto Salad
Description
Antipasto Salad brings together fresh romaine lettuce as a crisp base for an assortment of classic antipasto ingredients such as chopped salami and mozzarella pearls. Black olives, cherry tomatoes, and roasted red bell peppers add bursts of salty and sweet flavors, while pepperoncini provides a mild tangy heat. Thinly sliced red onion and grated Parmesan cheese contribute sharpness and richness to the mix.
The salad is assembled by combining the chopped lettuce with the other components arranged attractively, allowing the diner to add the Italian dressing to taste. Keeping the dressing on the side preserves the crispness of the greens until serving.
To maintain freshness, salad components are best stored separately and combined just before serving. This salad pairs well with various Italian meals, or can be a light main dish or side.

Notes
