Creating this Antipasto Salad with Easy Italian Dressing is a straightforward process that yields amazing results. Just follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Vegetables: Rinse and dry the mixed greens thoroughly. Slice the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and bell peppers as directed.

2. Combine the Ingredients: In a large salad bowl, add the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, black olives, green olives, salami, pepperoni, provolone cheese, and artichoke hearts.

3. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl or jar, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, oregano, sugar, salt, and pepper. Whisk or shake until well blended.

4. Toss the Salad: Drizzle the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss to combine, ensuring everything is evenly coated.

5. Chill (Optional): For the best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This allows the various flavors to meld together beautifully.

6. Serve: Once ready to serve, sprinkle the chopped fresh basil on top as a final touch.
