1 head iceberg lettuce -- cut in 1" cubes

1 1/2 cups diced zucchini
1 1/2 cups halved red grapes
16 cherry tomatoes -- cut in half
10 green olives -- coarsely chopped

Combine lettuce, squash, zucchini, grapes, tomatoes, olives, capers, and red-pepper strips in large bowl.

In a small bowl, combine anchovies, lemon juice, mustard, oil, honey, and red-pepper liquid. Whisk thoroughly. Do not worry that dressing tastes acidic; it won't once it's in the salad. Toss salad and dressing together and let stand at least 10 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan.
