Prepare the Base:
In a large bowl, combine halved tomatoes, chopped artichoke hearts, chopped string cheese, and olives.
Dress the Salad:
Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar (or lemon juice). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Optional Additions:
If desired, stir in your choice of protein—rotisserie chicken, tuna, cooked sausage, or chickpeas—for a more filling salad.
Mix & Serve:
Toss everything gently until well combined. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for 15–20 minutes for a cooler, more refreshing salad.
