Both my Space hybrid spinach and Romaine leaf lettuce come back happily when I cut them about 1/2" from the ground. I kind of do it in sections, about 1/3 of the patch at a time, so at any given time I have some in different stages of growing back.

Now, if I only had a red, ripe tomato to go with that tasty lettuce. . . I broke down and bought a store tomato, I was so desperate, and of course regretted it. My 'maters are still tiny. This is a Cherokee Purple. All of my tomatoes are still about this size or slightly larger. Patience, patience. . .
