Italian Salad with Feta

This chopped romaine salad is a combination of Italian and Greek flavors. It combines crisp lettuce with chickpeas, Genoa salami, olives, and feta cheese in delicious oregano and lemon flavored vinaigrette.

It’s a great side salad to pair with any margherita pasta, whole roasted chicken, or a lighter baked cod with panko. Also, you can easily serve the salad as is with a side of crusty bread.
