For the dressing, whisk together the sugar, vinegar, oil, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder and salt. Set aside.
Heat a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the salami and cook until just starting to brown. Drain on paper towels.
Pile the lettuce, tomatoes, mushrooms, black olives, blue cheese and salami on four salad plates.
Top salad with the dressing and serve.
