This antipasto salad is colorful and easy to make. After searching for a recipe for an antipasto salad that I had envisioned in my head, I gave up and just decided to create one myself. I made this dish for a party, and everyone couldn't stop talking about it. The ratio of meat, cheese, and veggies can be adjusted to taste.
