Salad Dinner

Whats is a good starter salad for a dinner party?
nothing with exotic flavours like goat cheese for example, no bitter greens, and please no friuts or nuts!
thank you!
ps.no one has an allergy to these things, we just dont like them
…some people must have misunderstood my question.
i like cheese, and so does everyone else, just not strong cheeses like goat and blue. everything else is fine.
