Instructions

  1. Combine the vinaigrette ingredients in a bowl or jar and whisk or shake until emulsified.
  2. Slice the meat, cheese, pickles, onions and place them in a bowl with the chopped parsley. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad. Toss to thoroughly coat the salad, add more salt and pepper to taste, and then chill for at least an hour before serving, giving it another couple of stirs.
