- 4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
- ¼ cup sliced halal deli turkey breast
- ¼ cup sliced halal salami
- ¼ cup sliced provolone cheese
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- ⅓ cup thinly sliced red onion
- ⅓ cup thinly sliced cucumber
- ¼ cup jarred banana pepper rings
- 2 tbsp sliced black olives
- ⅓ cup Italian salad dressing
- 3 tbsp grated parmesan cheese, divided

Instructions
- Prepare the vegetables: Wash and chop romaine lettuce into bite-size pieces. Slice cherry tomatoes in halves, thinly slice red onion and cucumber. Set aside.
- Combine the base ingredients: In a large bowl, add romaine lettuce, halal deli turkey, halal salami, provolone cheese, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, banana pepper rings, and black olives. Toss gently to mix evenly.
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together Italian salad dressing and 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese until fully combined.
- Dress the salad: Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients. Toss gently but thoroughly to coat without bruising the lettuce.

Notes
Choose fresh, crisp romaine for the best texture. Use halal-certified deli meats for authenticity. Adjust dressing quantity to taste. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
