Make the dressing. In a small mixing bowl, combine the dressing ingredients. Whisk until smooth and set aside. If you are not planning on serving the salad immediately, transfer to a mason jar and refrigerate.
Toss the salad. In a large mixing bowl, add arugula and salad mix. Stir in the artichokes, pepperoncinis, onions and dairy free parmesan cheese. When ready to serve, pour the dressing over the salad, stirring again to incorporate the dressing. Sprinkle with remaining dairy free parmesan and serve.
