Instructions:
1) To make the dressing, place the mustard, lemon juice, maple syrup, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper your blender or food processor. Pulse to combine. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil just a little bit at a time to emulsify. Once fully incorporated. Transfer to a glass jar or cruet and set aside.
2) For the salad, spread the lettuce out in an even layer in a large salad bowl. Arrange the salami, tomato, cucumber, chickpeas, shredded cheese, celery, carrot, and onion on top in compact, attractive piles for maximum visual appeal.
3) Drizzle lightly with the vinaigrette. To serve, toss to combine. Add more dressing to taste or serve with extra on the side.
Makes 3 – 4 Servings
Notes:
The dressing can be made well in advance and kept in an airtight container or glass jar in the fridge for up to three weeks.
