Very good! We used a bag of mixed salad because we didn't have romaine and I still loved it-I'm sure it would work on spinach greens too...I can't wait to make it again with romaine!

This was a delightful salad. I was pleased to find a use for mozzarella besides the ubiquitous tomato/basil/mozzarella platter!
