Italian-Hero Chopped Salad image

This versatile lunch salad works well with whatever meats you have on hand. It's an Italian take on the chopped salad with spicy marinated vegetables and garlic-ciabatta croutons. The croutons and dressing can be made ahead and will stay fresh up to a week. Pack everything in a resealable container and you're ready to go.

This salad was a bit too oily for my taste. I also found the dressing to be a bit too sweet.

I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.
