Hi there, Ameera here!

This appetizer is so delicious that we turned it into a meal. We went to town dipping our quinoa flatbread and crostini into this deliciousness! It’s just so addictingly delicious!

You gotta give this one a try!

Tips for Success:

• Flavor Profile: This veggie dip (salad) tastes like all your favorite Italian Hoagie fixings, minus the meats and cheeses, served in a dip-style fashion with your favorite bread or crostini.
• Pepperoncini: There are many brands of pepperoncini. Some have a much stronger flavor than other brands.  Adjust the pepperoncini based upon the brand purchased or through taste-testing.  If using full pepperoncini instead of sliced, slice open the pepperoncini and scoop out any seeds.
• Finely Chopped Ingredients: The ingredients in this dip are finely chopped to make it easy to load onto small crostini or crackers.
• Allowing the Salad to Marinate: Allow the salad/dip to marinate for 10 minutes, then give it a really good mix. This brings the dressing on the bottom to the top.  Advise guests to give it a good stir before loading up their crostini to bring forth the dressing.
• Make Ahead: This appetizer is a great make-ahead dish.  Just place all the prepared ingredients listed in the Veggie Ingredients into a bowl, mix well, refrigerate.  Make the Vegan Italian Pepperoncini Dressing, refrigerate.  About 10 minutes before serving, mix the two together, allow to set for 10 minutes, then serve.  Note:  Cashew based dressings tend to thicken when refrigerated, you may need to add some water or red wine vinegar to thin out.
• Breads, Crackers, Crostini, Flatbreads:  You can serve this deliciousness with your favorite Whole Food Plant Based dippers.  We used Mary’s Gone Crackers and our Quinoa Flatbread.   Dad used a Tuscan bread from a local bakery.
• Pita Pocket or Wrap:  This can also be served inside a pita pocket or inside a wrap!  It’s completely delicious!
• Hoagie or Submarine Sandwiches:  This recipe also makes perfect hoagie/submarine sandwiches! Rave reviews all around by vegans and meat-lovers alike!

Leftovers and Freezing:

Leftovers will generally keep for 4 days (undressed) in the refrigerator.  Store in a covered container.

This dish cannot be frozen.

Pantry Products Used:

• Sliced Pepperoncini: We used Divina Sliced Pepperoncini.  These pepperoncini are Whole Food Plant Based, no dyes are included.  They have amazing flavor. This brand of pepperoncini has a beautiful mild flavor.  Feel free to use your favorite sliced pepperoncini in this salad.
• Sea Salt: Please adjust the sea salt based upon your family’s sea salt preferences and/or based upon dietary needs.
