Ingredients
- 1 7 oz. package of Applegate pepperoni slices, chopped or sliced*
- 2 bell peppers, choose your favorite color, chopped or sliced
- 1 eggplant, diced
- 1 red onion, diced
- 6 oz mushrooms, sliced
- chili flakes, to taste
- olive oil
- black or green olives, roughly chopped
- banana peppers, roughly chopped
- fresh basil, torn with your hands into small pieces
- any other pizza-like topping you dig
- For the Sauce:
- 3 T pizza sauce
- 1 T red wine vinegar
- 1/4 c olive oil
Directions
-
Over medium-high heat, saute the pepperoni pieces until they’re crispy. Remove from the pan and let them hang out in your serving dish. Add some fat to your saute pan, along with peppers, onion, eggplant and mushrooms. Let all the ingredients sweat it out together, until they’ve softened and developed some caramelized-like color. Add the veggie mixture to your serving bowl, along with the chili flakes, olives, banana peppers and basil.
-
Whisk all the ingredients together. Drizzle over the pizza salad and toss to combine. Serve the salad hot–though cold pizza salad is just as yum in the tum.
