Ande, this is a recipe I got from the
Allrecipe site, which I have been using for quite awhile for
picnics. The best
thing you can add or delete items to your liking, which I
have done on many occasion.
Antipasto Platter
2 heads iceberg lettuce
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 (8 ounce) bottle Italian-style salad dressing
1 pound thinly sliced cooked ham
2 1/2 pounds sliced provolone cheese
1/2 pound Genoa salami, thinly sliced
1/4 pound Capacola sausage, sliced
1/4 pound pepperoni sausage, sliced
1/4 pound prosciutto, thinly sliced
1/4 pound thinly sliced roast beef
1 cup fresh mushrooms
1 (6 ounce) can marinated artichoke hearts
1 (7 ounce) jar roasted red peppers
1 (6 ounce) can sliced black olives
3/4 cup sliced pepperoncini peppers
1 (5 ounce) jar sliced pimento-stuffed green olives
1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
1/2 pound mozzarella cheese, sliced
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Remove large outer leaves from the heads of lettuce. Arrange
approximately 1/3 in a layer on a large serving
platter. Sprinkle with 1/3 garlic powder, 1/3 crushed
oregano and desired amount of Italian-style salad dressing.
Layer with cooked ham and Provolone cheese.
Layer Provolone cheese with another 1/3 of the lettuce
leaves, 1/3 garlic powder, 1/3 crushed oregano, desired
amount of Italian-style salad dressing, Genoa salami and
Capacola sausage.
Repeat layering with remaining lettuce, garlic powder,
crushed oregano, Italian-style salad dressing, pepperoni
sausage, prosciutto and roast beef.
Layer with mushrooms, marinated artichoke hearts, roasted
red peppers, black olives, pepperoncini and pimento-stuffed
green olives. Sprinkle with more Italian-style salad
dressing, as desired.
Top with Gorgonzola cheese, mozzarella cheese and Parmesan
cheese. Cover and chill in the refrigerator until serving.
Serve with crusty Italian Bread.
