A green tossed salad with all the flavors of a Muffaletta Sandwich. This Muffaletta Salad is filling enough to be eaten alone as a meal and it is a must make recipe for a Mardi Gras party.
I like to chop everything up small so it’s like a chopped salad and you get lots of different flavors in every bite. I think that’s what makes a Muffaletta Sandwich so great- there are so many different flavors in every bite and they all compliment each other.

 
Different meats (usually salami, ham, and mortadella), cheese, olives, and pepperonicini.
I like to use both Provolone cheese plus a little freshly grated Parmesan cheese. I also add celery, red bell pepper, onion, black olives, and a jar of Giardiniera which I chop up really well.

  For a little kick, I take some pepperoncini peppers and chop them up really well and toss them in the salad. Not only do they add some heat, but they are nice and peppery.

 
There’s a lot of chopping and cubing involved, but this recipe makes a huge salad and you’ll be glad you went to the trouble.
For the dressing, I just make a simple mixture of red wine vinegar, olive oil, garlic, dried oregano and basil.

There’s a whole Muffaletta Sandwich in this bowl, minus the bread!
