Ingredients
- 3 cups chopped hearts of romaine or spring greens (I like mixing a bit of both)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup pitted Castelvetrano olives
- 1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives or black olives
- 1 cup mild Giardiniera
- 1 cup quartered marinated artichoke hearts
- 1/2 cup Pepperoncini
- 6 ounces provolone cheese, cubed
- 1 cup baby mozzarella balls or Ciliegine
- 8 ounces salami, cubed
- 1/2 cup Mini pepperoni
- Dijon Vinaigrette, about 1/4 cup or more to taste
Instructions
- Mix. In a large serving bowl or platter, combine the lettuce and/or spring greens, tomatoes, olives, giardiniera, artichoke hearts, pepperoncini, provolone cheese, mozzarella, salami, and mini pepperoni. Cover and refrigerate until you’re ready to serve (up to 1 day).
- Dress. Just before serving, pour about half of the vinaigrette all over the salad and toss. Taste and add more vinaigrette if needed, then serve immediately.
