Instructions

Chop up the Romaine lettuce into 1/4 inch pieces. Add to salad bowl.
Chop all the other ingredients (Pepperoni, Provolone Cheese, Salami, Red Onion, Roasted Red Pepper, Pepperoncini Peppers, Garbanzo Beans, Kalamata Olives) about 1/4 inch in size. (The garbanzo beans can remain whole. Arrange on top of the salad alternating colors around the bowl. I like to put the olives in the center.
Sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese and it’s ready to present.
Before you’re ready to serve, add Salad Dressing and toss.

Notes

I love this recipe because measurement really don’t matter. It is all about your personal preference. To get you started, though, I’d recommend about 1/4 – 1/2 cup of each topping.
