Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lettuce

    Wash and dry the Romaine and Iceberg lettuces, then chop them into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Spinach

    Rinse the spinach leaves thoroughly, then add them to the salad bowl with the chopped Romaine and Iceberg lettuces.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Peas

    If using frozen peas, thaw them under warm water. Once thawed, add the peas to the salad bowl and mix gently.

Topping the Salad

  1. 4

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the lettuce and peas.

  2. 5

    Garnish with Bacon Bits

    Sprinkle the bacon bits on top of the salad for added flavor and crunch.

Dressing the Salad

  1. 6

    Drizzle Dressing

    Pour the buttermilk ranch dressing over the salad, ensuring even coverage. Toss gently to combine the ingredients without bruising the lettuce.
