Italian Flavors Salad
This is a highly modifiable salad full sliced cheese, Italian cured meats, onion, pepperoncini, and tomatoes. Marinated artichoke hearts, olives, and even handfuls of fresh herbs would be excellent additions. The whole lot is tossed with a zesty and bright Italian vinaigrette for a flavorful and refreshing no-cook salad.
