For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the dressing. If you don't have marinated artichoke hearts, you can use plain artichoke hearts and marinate them yourself with olive oil, garlic, and herbs. This salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will actually improve as it sits! Feel free to customize this salad with your favorite Mediterranean ingredients, such as sun-dried tomatoes, cucumbers, or Kalamata olives.
