Ingredients

For the Dressing:

⅓ cup olive oil
¼ cup red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper

For the Salad:

1 head iceberg lettuce, shredded
¼ pound salami, thinly sliced
1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 ½ tablespoons nutritional yeast

Instructions

Combine the dressing ingredients (olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper) in a jar and shake until well combined.
Drain and rinse the chickpeas and add to a bowl with ¼ cup of dressing. Stir and allow to marinate for 1 hour. Note, you can skip this step if you’re in a hurry. It just makes the beans more flavorful.
Add the sliced iceberg lettuce, salami, marinated chickpeas (plus dressing), and nutritional yeast to a large bowl and toss with the remainder of the dressing.
Serve and ENJOY!

Notes

If you forget to marinate the chickpeas ahead of time, no sweat! It just makes them a bit more flavorful. This salad is great for meal prep, although I suggest adding the dressing just before serving to avoid a soggy iceberg lettuce situation.
