Antipasto Salad

I am always on the lookout for a new salad. Especially during the summer months, a nice cold salad is bright and refreshing. This antipasto salad has wonderful flavours and is a meal in itself. I love an antipasto plate and I cannot believe that I had never thought to turn it into a salad.

This recipe is adapted from Giada De Laurentiis. It is the first recipe from her that I have tried and it is a real winner.

This is the perfect starter to go with an Italian meal. Follow this up with some lasagna or manicotti for a great Italian dinner. This also can go wonderfully well alongside grilled chicken or steak.
