My go-to salad recipe is this fresh and flavorful Italian Salad. It's made with a variety of tasty ingredients and is tossed in an easy homemade Italian vinaigrette. You're going to want to serve it with everything!
Ingredients
For the vinaigrette:
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
For the salad:
- 1 large head romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 1/2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
- 1/3 cup pitted black olives, halved
- 1/3 cup sliced or whole pepperoncini peppers
- 2 cups croutons, more or less depending on preference
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for serving
Instructions
For the vinaigrette:
-
Add all ingredients to a jar with a lid. I use a mason jar. Shake vigorously to combine all ingredients. Use immediately or store in the fridge for about a week.
For the salad:
-
Add all salad ingredients to a large salad serving bowl. Toss to combine, drizzle with the vinaigrette and toss again to coat the salad. Serve with more Parmesan cheese sprinkled over the top.
