Each chunk has one thing savory and flavorful.
There’s additionally wonderful texture.

I make roasted greens and chickpeas typically, nevertheless it wasn’t till just lately that I added in smoked provolone and crispy salami. It’s SUCH a recreation changer.
Right here’s the cope with the salami. You may toast it in a skillet (that is what I normally do) or you may throw it on the sheet pan with the brussels and potatoes, roasting for the final 5 minutes or so. As soon as it’s barely cooled, I tear or chop it.
You additionally don’t should crisp it up in any respect. Chop up your favourite salami and toss it proper there within the bowl with all the things else. Additionally a giant win!
I discover that the smoked provolone is what actually takes this salad excessive. It’s so sharp, smoky, buttery and nutty and that taste makes an enormous distinction.
The entire bowl is harking back to an antipasto salad and actually simply hits the spot.
This salad is tremendous versatile. Eat it identical to this, or serve it over salad. It’s additionally actually good served in lettuce or endive cups! You may prime a pita with it (further hummus please) and even serve some alongside a principal dish. All methods work!
