First of all I don't like artichokes. You can substitute heart of palm. I cook for some picky eaters. They don't like romaine lettuce, can't blame them you gotta scrub it , and look it over carefully for little worms especially here in Florida. Some whine it has too much meat. Most don't like cherry tomatoes. So I diced tomatoes. The red pepper are the pimentos in the green olives. Leeks instead of red or white onions. They also don't like Pepperoncini peppers, or provolone cheese. So I usually don't make it, but when I do this is how. So if you don't say that it's a proper salad you come and cook for at least 12 folks, and if you do it better be to their liking.

My favorite summer munchie food!! Great to make and keep in fridge for kids go to!!.. Mine love!!. Perfect by pool!

I love antipasto platters so I put everything in a salad. The meats can be left out or swapped out. Very versatile and delicious.

a lot like the pasta I usually make but I used to use Italian dressing, I like this better. I added cherry tomatoes and mozzerela cheese.

Grilling romaine lettece is a great alternative for this lettece. It holds up really well to a quick cook and takes on the baste and becomes very juicy and remains crisp. I paired it with antipasto ingredients and grilled fresh tuna. This is a delicious muti flavored main dish salad!

I got this recipe from meal lime. It was a hit with my family, but we did tweak it slightly.
