Olives & Mushrooms: Since this recipe is based off a supreme pizza naturally olives and mushrooms will follow. Roast the mushrooms along side the peppers and onions. Add any addition veggies you have on hand.
Marinara Vinegarette: The marinara vinegarette is simple. Its a combination of olive oil and vinegar with a splash a marinara sauce. the marinara sauce permeates the vinegarette which ties the salad all together.
Meatballs: Leftover meatballs can always be put to good use. Simply leave them not tossed in sauce so that you can get a better handle on them and toss them in a salad. The no prep additions are always a nice touch.
Pepperoni: Pepperoni slices are always great to have on hand. The spicy pepperoni adds a little spice to the salad. Its a simple step that requires no additional labor on your part.
