This antipasto salad is an excellent appetizer or light meal. I love all of these ingredients combined together. You can serve this salad with crusty bread, a sandwich or soup and enjoy it with some vino!

1 bunch fresh basil, sliced thin
1/4 cup balsamic
Kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper, red pepper flakes to taste

In a large mixing bowl, add lettuce, avocado, prosciutto, mozzarella, tomato, onion, chickpeas, basil, balsamic and a splash of olive oil. Stir or toss to combine.
