Cut 15 Spanish pimento stuffed olives in half and add them to a side of the salad, cut ½ of an avocado into thin slices and add them to another side of the salad, cut ½ of a fresh mozzarella ball into thin slices and add to another side of the salad, then shave some slices of gruyère cheese and queso Manchego and place them next to the mozzarella
