Lettuce is low in calorie so it is happily eaten. Did you know it is balanced in potassium, iron, calcium, carotene, vitamin C and fibers? It is popular to have it in a salad of course but try adding it to soup and fried rice. You can eat more quantity this way. You can also enjoy wrapping grilled meats and vegetables at BBQs. We just tried throwing a whole head of romaine on the grill this weekend. Cut in half and place the cut side on a plate with olive oil so that it covers the whole cut surface. Put on the grill for about ten minutes just enough to brown them on both sides. Chop it up and pour balsamic vinegar on it. Very tasty! Here is a refreshing recipe that is very healthy and it’s a twist on a Thai papaya salad!
