Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Wash, dry and thinly shred your romaine lettuce. I like to use my salad spinner for washing and drying the lettuce. Spread the lettuce out in an even layer in your salad bowl.
  2. Slice the tomatoes in half and arrange them in a row down the center of the bowl.
  3. Next, add the shreds of mortadella and genoa salami on either side of the tomatoes.
  4. Add the slivered red onions to the right of the mortadella and the prosciutto to the left of the genoa salami.
  5. Add half the sliced provolone cheese on the right and left sides, then add the roasted red peppers on the far right and the sliced pepperoncini on the far left side.
  6. In a small mixing bowl, add in the mayonnaise, Italian dressing and brines from the roasted peppers and pepperoncini.
  7. Whisk until well combined, then pour over the salad right before serving.
  8. Toss to combine and serve.
