Italian Salad With Cheese is a vibrant dish rooted in Mediterranean cuisine, celebrated for its fresh ingredients and robust flavors. Typically, it includes crisp romaine lettuce, juicy tomatoes, crunchy cucumbers, red onions, and a mix of olives or roasted peppers, paired with shredded or cubed cheeses like mozzarella, Parmesan, or provolone. Often drizzled with a tangy vinaigrette made of olive oil, vinegar, and Italian herbs, it combines freshness with creamy, savory notes. The salad is rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants from the vegetables, while the olive oil provides heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. However, the cheese and dressing may be higher in saturated fats and sodium, so portion sizes should be considered if you're watching your intake. This well-rounded dish offers a versatile addition to meals, working as a starter or a light main course, reflecting the elegance and simplicity of Italian cuisine.
