# Instructions:

01 - In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir everything together until smooth and well-blended.
02 - To the bowl with the dressing, add the sliced red onion, pepperoncini, diced tomatoes, provolone cheese cubes, chopped salami, and turkey. The dressing will start to coat these ingredients.
03 - Top with the chopped iceberg lettuce, then toss everything together until all components are well coated with the creamy dressing. The lettuce should be evenly distributed with the meats and cheese.
04 - For best crunch and flavor, serve right away while the lettuce is still crisp and the dressing is fresh.

02 - You can prep all ingredients ahead of time and toss together just before serving.
03 - For extra flavor, add sliced banana peppers or olives.
