Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash and Prepare Greens

    Rinse the Romaine lettuce and spinach thoroughly under cold water. Remove any wilted or damaged leaves. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Slice the cucumber, green bell pepper, and tomatoes into bite-sized pieces. For the cucumber, you can peel it if desired, but it's not necessary.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 3

    Combine Base Ingredients

    In a large salad bowl, add the prepared Romaine lettuce and spinach as the base of the salad.

  2. 4

    Add Vegetables

    Add the chopped cucumber, green bell pepper, and tomatoes to the bowl with the greens.

  3. 5

    Incorporate Cheese

    Sprinkle the shredded Cheddar and Mozzarella cheese evenly over the salad.

Dressing the Salad

  1. 6

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving, and toss gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
