Recipes using lettuce
There are 330 recipes that contain this ingredient.
Pork Hock with Pickled Sweet Red Pepper
I like this sour flavor. The best over buckwheat, but all is fine when over rice, potatoes, noodles, or just with lettuce mix. You may use pickled grilled red pepper.
The Mr. Turkey Sandwich
Quick, easy and delicious. I only had salami, and that's what I used in the sandwich. Of course a slice of ham and smoked turkey would double the yumminess. I shredded the lettuce, and seasoned it with a bit extra-virgin olive oil, wine vinegar, salt and black pepper. The tomato slices were also seasoned with a pinch of sea salt. The sandwich was so good!
Turkey Bacon Pasta Salad
Turn leftover turkey into a refreshing pasta salad with sweet great peas, crunchy celery topped with bacon.
Special Club Sandwich
I substituted deli roasted turkey breast for the chicken and used whole grain oatmeal bread. Outstanding.
Sauteed Garlic Salad Dressing
The dressing is so garlicky without feeling spicy or overwhelmed, because the garlic has been cooked in the oil. The dressing works deliciously well with almost any your favorite salads.
