I really love the salad but I'm not a big fan of the dressing. I still make it for everyone else because they seem to like it but I usually just use a store bought dressing for myself. Although I like white and red beans in salad, I typically serve this salad after a meal so to cut down on the heaviness the beans bring I substitute them with palm hearts and artichoke hearts. Comes out absolutely delicious. My mom always wants me to make this for family gatherings.

Great, quick and easy recipe.
I added a handful of sliced pepperoncinis, a diced Serrano pepper, 1/2 a cucumber to cool some of the heat, and artichoke hearts. Depending on how much artichoke you like you might want to ease off that salt shaker a bit. If your looking looking to compliment the dish with a lean protein, a lemon marinaded chicken or salmon is perfect.

Marinade
1/2 a lemon's juice
1/2 cup EVOO
2 big garlic cloves (diced
Sea salt
Ground pepper
All in a bag, shake your chicken up real well and throw it in the fridge for 30 mins.

Tasty? What did you thiDelicious and nice spin on a salad. I used chorizo instead for the meat and cooked it and then refrigerated it to keep with the cold salad. It was ravishing. Also, I used more honey in the dressing so it would not be too bitter. I also used shredded cheese instead.nk?

I made this salad for an afternoon party - so wanted something not too heavy. I used gouda instead of provolone and it was really good. I didn't add the kidney beans but this salad was still a hit with everyone!

I added quartered artichoke hearts and used Brianna's balsamic vinaigrette because I was short on time and it is one of the best salads I have ever tasted! Will definitely add this to my dinner rotation.

Thought this was excellent. Made it as a side for lasagna instead of the regular caesar that I usually make. Was a huge hit with my guests and was very easy. I left out the kidney beans just because the rest of the meal was very heavy and added a bit more honey to the dressing than was called for. Will definitely make again.

It was a great salad. The dressing was a little sharp so I added one more tsp of honey, a little more olive oil, quite a bit of pepper. To the body of the salad, I added a can of black olives and 1/2 cup grated parmesan. The salad received rave reviews at a beach bbq birthday party. It fed 22 people, many had seconds and thirds of it.

I left out the garbanzo and kidney beans, but otherwise a very good salad. When I first tasted the dressing by itself, I thought it was way too sour, but after I tossed with the rest of the ingredients, it was fine. I guess the salami and provolone tempered the sourness. Will be making this again.
