    What Does Antipasto Salad Mean?

    Antipasto is the plural form of antipasti, meaning "before the meal." Usually served as an appetizer an antipasto salad consists of different Italian meats, cheeses, peppers and olives. It's truly a salad full of all the best hors d'oeuvres all rolled into one amazing salad.

    While this is typically served before a meal, with all the delicious meats and cheeses, you can certainly serve this as a quick lunch or light dinner.

    One of the beautiful things about this Antipasto Salad is, you can easily substitute anything and it will still turn out amazing! If you'd like to add one more layer of flavor and texture, add some of these sliced, zesty Keto Marinated Mushrooms.

    Though this Keto Antipasto Salad uses the traditional things you'll find on most Italian versions, you can add any Italian meats, cheeses, peppers or even olives you'd like.

    The simple flavors in the dressing in this recipe is the perfect marriage of flavors with the other ingredients, but you can use any sugar free vinaigrette you prefer.
