Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup romaine lettuce chopped
  • 1 cup iceberg lettuce chopped
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/2 cup cucumber diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup garbanzo beans drained and rinsed
  • 1/4 cup provolone cheese diced
  • 1/4 cup salami diced
  • 1/4 cup pepperoncini sliced
  • 1/4 cup Italian dressing
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the romaine lettuce, iceberg lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, Kalamata olives, garbanzo beans, provolone cheese, salami, and pepperoncini.
  2. Drizzle the Italian dressing over the salad and toss gently until all ingredients are well coated.
  3. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. For best flavor, let the salad sit for about 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian option, omit the salami and provolone cheese and add extra chickpeas or avocado for creaminess.
  • Add a handful of fresh herbs like parsley or basil for an extra burst of flavor.
