Ingredients
Scale
Meats and Cheese
- 4 oz Deli Sliced Pepperoni, chopped
- 4 oz Deli Sliced Salami, chopped
- 8 oz Mozzarella Pearls
Vegetables & Olives
- 3 oz Pepperoncini Peppers, chopped
- 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes, halved
- 10 oz Artichoke Hearts, chopped
- 1/4 cup Kalamata Olives, chopped
Dressing
- 3 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 1/2 tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
- 1 tsp Minced Garlic
- 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
- 1 tsp Sugar-Free Honey
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Chop and Combine the Stars: Grab a large bowl and chop the deli-sliced pepperoni and salami into bite-sized pieces. If mozzarella pearls are large, halve them; otherwise, leave as is. Drain and chop the pepperoncini peppers and artichoke hearts. Halve the cherry tomatoes and chop the Kalamata olives. Add all these ingredients into the bowl and mix well to evenly distribute.
- Whisk Up the Zesty Dressing: In a smaller bowl, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and sugar-free honey. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk vigorously until the dressing is smooth and emulsified.
- Dress and Toss to Perfection: Pour the dressing evenly over the salad ingredients. Gently but thoroughly toss everything with salad tongs or large spoons to ensure every ingredient is coated with the dressing.
- Serve Immediately or Chill: Serve the salad right away or chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and deepen, enhancing the taste.
Notes
- For best flavor, allow salad to chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- You can substitute sugar-free honey with your preferred keto-friendly sweetener.
- Adjust salt and pepper to taste depending on your preference.
- This salad is ideal for meal prep as it keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
