Pasta House Salad image

This is supposed to be a copy-cat of Pasta House Salad, but I think of it more as my step-mothers signature salad. We have this at every family function. It tastes very unique, and is also easy to prepare. I have often made it up the night before, salad in one bowl, dressing in another container, and then just combined the two prior to serving.

Time 40m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 head iceberg lettuce
1/2 head romaine lettuce
1 can artichoke heart, drained
1 medium red onion, sliced thin
1 jar pimiento
2/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Toss together the lettuce, artichoke hearts, onion, and pimento in a large salad bowl and set aside.
  • Combine remaining ingredients ina container with a tight lid.
  • Shake container vigorously until well-blended.
  • Pour dressing onto salad and toss until well covered.
  • Refrigerate for about 30 minutes prior to serving to marinate.
  • Note: do not add dressing for more than 30 minutes prior to serving, because the acids in the dressing will break down the lettuce, causing it to be wilty.
