Chopped Muffuletta Salad

I’m a huge fan of muffuletta sandwiches. I’ve made them many times, and usually with my own olive salad. My wife is a lover of olives, too. And boy did we ever love this chopped muffuletta salad!

Chopped Muffuletta Salad

This twist takes the classic muffuletta sandwich and turns it into a great side salad. Full of all the things that make a muffuletta great, such as salami, provolone and olives! This chopped muffuletta salad is a wonderful change. And it’s great if you’re skipping the bread but miss the taste of the sandwich!

This recipe is based on a recipe from The Fromagetta.
