Italian Chef's Salad created by dianegrapegrower

A classic salad with an Italian twist. Note: Olives, artichoke hearts, and salami all add salt, so you may find you don't need further salt in the salad. Serves 2-3 as a main course salad, 4 as side salad.

definetly good! i used roma tomatoes, and a pesto dressing, but the veggies were so good! I didnt stir in the lettuce (i knew there'd be leftovers) so served it over lettuce.
