For a vegetarian option, omit the salami and capicola and add marinated artichoke hearts. Feel free to adjust the amount of pepperoncini to suit your spice preference. This salad keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors intensify over time. If you don't have mozzarella pearls, you can substitute cubed fresh mozzarella. A drizzle of balsamic glaze can add a touch of sweetness and complexity.
