Yum!

Made the first time exactly as described. Since then we've made a few adjustments that our family LOVES. First, we changed the prosciutto out for cubed salami for a heartier flavor. My kids don't care for sun-dried tomatoes, so I changed the Italian Vinaigrette to a Roasted Red Pepper Italian Dressing. Fantastic, and even better the next day if there are any leftovers to be had.
