Preparation

  1. 1

    Rinse the mixed lettuce greens under cold water, then spin or pat dry thoroughly to remove excess moisture.

  1. 4

    Measure 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese and set aside for topping.

    Make dressing

    In a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until emulsified.

Assemble

  1. 6

    In a large salad bowl, place the mixed greens. Drizzle with dressing and toss to coat evenly.

  2. 7
