Classic Chopped Salad

Meet the salad version of my favorite sandwich of all time. The romaine gives it the perfect refreshing crunch and olives provide a salty, buttery bite, but you can really throw in whatever veggies you have in your fridge. I only added a little red onion and chopped it super finely so it wouldn’t be too overpowering. With creamy mozz and salami, it tastes just like my favorite sandwich—but I can eat so much more of it without getting too full.
