Ingredients

3 servings
  • Chickpeas, Canned, Drained
  • Salami, Dry Cured, Sliced(85g)
  • Mozzarella Cheese(85g)

    Part-skim mozzarella. Pre-shredded bags are convenient for meal prep.

  • Lettuce, Romaine
  • Parmesan Cheese(60g)

    Grated Parmesan — the shelf-stable canister is fine for cooking.

  • Olive oil(45g)

    Regular (not extra-virgin) olive oil for high-heat cooking. EVOO for dressings.

  • Vinegar, Red Wine(30g)
  • Mustard, Dijon(5g)

    Dijon mustard — Grey Poupon or store brand. Spicier than yellow mustard.

  • Kosher salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. 1To the bottom of 3 large mason jars, add the dressing ingredients. It's completely fine (and easier) to eyeball this: use almost as much red wine vinegar as olive oil, a dash of Dijon, and pinch each of salt and pepper.
  2. 2Layer on the chickpeas, then the salami, mozzarella, and Parm for good measure. Top with romaine. Store 2 to 3 days
