Pickled Red Onions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup red wine vinegar, ¼ cup sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer. Add the onions, turn off the heat, and let cool. Transfer the onions to a mason jar and refrigerate. These will keep for 2–3 months.

Italian Dressing

  1. In a mason jar or personal blender, combine all ingredients and blend or shake well until thoroughly mixed. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.

Salad

  1. Chop the Romaine or Little Gem lettuce into bite-sized pieces, then wash and rinse thoroughly using a salad spinner. Ensure the greens are completely dry before assembling the salad for the best texture and flavor.
  2. In a large bowl layer the romaine and arugula, shredded carrots, cucumber, garbanzo beans, tomatoes, olives, pickled red onions, mozzarella, provolone, and hard-boiled eggs. Top with thinly sliced salami and a sprinkle of parsley, dried oregano, salt, and pepper for added flavor.
  3. Serve with this homemade Italian dressing or dressing of choice and some warm crusty bread on the side.

Notes

Store pickled red onions in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 months. Store dressing in refrigerator for up to 7 days.
