Pizza Salad
An easy lunch that has all your traditional pizza toppings over a bed of lettuce.
Ingredients
Salad
- 1 head Romain or Red Leaf Lettuce
- 1 Green Bell Pepper diced
- 1 cup Mushrooms chopped
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes sliced in half
- ½ cup Olives I use Kalamata, but you can use any olives you like
- 10 slices Pepperoni or Salami I use Applegate
Dressing
- ½ cup Olive oil
- ½ cup Balsamic Vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Oregano
- 1 teaspoon Basil
- ¼ teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
Instructions
- Toss all of the salad ingredients together in a large bowl or divide into 4 equal bowls.
- Combine all the dressing ingredients into a jar or small bowl and whisk together.
- Pour the dressing over the top of the salad and enjoy!
Notes
- I like using Applegate pepperoni or salami- they have Whole30 Approved varieties of meats and varieties that are not Whole30, so be sure to check the labels.
- If you are doing a Whole30 I recommend using Prosciutto (True Story, Costco, Trader Joe's all have kinds that are compatible) or Chomps Pepperoni Turkey are great options for this salad.
- Don't be afraid to use any other meat you like too!
- If you like some cheese, you can always add some shredded cheese on top of this salad.
- In this recipe, I use basil and oregano, however, you have specific pizza seasoning on hand, you can use that instead!
- To save some time, you can chop everything and store separately in the fridge until you are ready to enjoy.
