Ingredients

FOR THE DRESSING

FOR THE SALAD

  • 2 ounces vegan pepperoni cut in strips
  • olive oil spray
  • 1 head romaine lettuce chopped
  • 1/2 head iceberg lettuce chopped
  • 1 cup radicchio chopped
  • 1/4 red onion thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup peperoncini sliced
  • 1 15-ounce can chickpeas drained & rinsed
  • 1/4 cup vegan parmesan grated

Instructions

  • Add all of the dressing ingredients to a bowl and whisk until combined and emulsified. Set aside.
  • Place a skillet on the stove over medium heat and spray with a little oil. Add the pepperoni slices and cook until crispy on both sides (approximately 3-5 minutes). Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • To assemble, add all of the salad ingredients to a bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Serve right away...with pizza on the side.

Notes

  • I got my vegan pepperoni at Trader Joe's. It isn't necessary to cook the pepperoni, but I think it tastes better when it is crispy.
  • I used Follow Your Heart vegan parmesan.
  • This is best served right away since the greens will continue to wilt as it sits.
  • The radicchio adds a slight bitterness to the salad, which is why the dressing is so tangy.
