This is one of those recipes that would have terrifed me as a child because there is not way that I would have touched this stuff. My husband, on the other hand, loves anitpasto. He saw this recipe in my Simple and Delicious magazine and circled it about 8 times. Do you think he was trying to tell me something? I gave it a try, and it was really good! I would make a few changes to the recipe, but I'll put my two-sense at the bottom of the page.

Here comes my two-sense... I omitted the Greek and pimiento olives. I think pepperoni would be an awesome addition to this. Also, I would add 1/4 Italian dressing. It was good the way it was, if you like this sort of thing, but I think the Italian dressing would add a little zip to the recipe.
