Salad meets antipasto in this colorful, bursting with flavor, main course salad. You’ll love all the different textures and taste sensations. This also works great as a side salad for a large gathering. I’ve made it much skinnier by substituting with reduced-fat salami instead of regular and using artichoke hearts packed in water, instead of oil. In addition, it’s chock full of veggies and tossed in a light dressing. This glorious salad has 236 calories and 10 grams of fat including, the dressing and cheese and 6 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS. A full fat salad contains 445 calories and 30 grams of fat.

    Shopping Tips

    Most large supermarkets sell reduced-fat salami in the deli section or luncheon meat section of the market. I used a brand called Columbus Lite Italian Dry Salame.

    Peperoncini’s can be found in a jar in the pickle and olive section. They’re available whole or already sliced. Store leftover jar in the refrigerator. Peperoncini’s add flavor to salads and sandwiches.

    Cardini’s Light dressings are sold in most large supermarkets. If you can’t find them, Girard’s Champagne Vinaigrette, Girard’s Balsamic Vinaigrette or Newman’s Own Light Balsamic dressing will all taste delicious on this salad.
