Italian Sub Salad
Description
The Italian Sub Salad features a crisp base of chopped iceberg lettuce paired with turkey, Genoa salami, turkey pepperoni, and Capicola, providing a mix of textures and savory flavors typical to Italian subs. Shredded mozzarella and provolone add creamy, mild cheese notes balanced by sharpness from the red onion and the acidity of cherry tomatoes. The dressing made from extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, minced garlic, and a touch of salt creates a bright, aromatic finish that complements the meats and vegetables while mingling with the briny flavor of pepperoncini brine and sliced black olives.
This salad can be served as a satisfying lunch or a light dinner, especially for those who enjoy deli flavors without a sandwich. It works well as a side dish to simple grilled meats or as a main in Italian-inspired meals.
