  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried parsley

For the Salad:

  • 14 to 16 ounces romaine leaf lettuce chopped*

  • 1 cup pepperoncinis
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes halves
  • 2 cups salami cut into strips

  2. Chop the romaine lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. Add all of the salad ingredients to a very large bowl or large serving bowl. Note: this salad recipe makes a huge salad so if you don’t have a large mixing bowl, use two bowls.
  3. Drizzle your desired amount of dressing over the salad and toss well to combine. Save any extra salad dressing in a mason jar for up to 2 weeks. Taste the salad for flavor and add more parmesan cheese and/or dressing to your personal taste. You can also add more of any of the ingredients for extra flavor.
  4. Serve Italian salad with your main dish and enjoy!
