You’ll like the combination of textures, flavors and colors in this Italian style salad. Iceberg lettuce gives a nice, refreshing crunch, while garbanzo beans add some nutty flavor. The salad then topped with smoky salami, creamy provolone, tangy and salty Kalamata olives and fresh cherry tomatoes that add a nice kick of sweetness and acidity.
Dijon dressing brings everything together and adds a nice tangy kick to the salad. This is a perfect easy and tasty salad for lunch or dinner, or even as a side dish to any meal.
