Lettuce varieties!! :)

My favorite dressing for a large salad is an Asian poppy seed dressing. Ingredients are lime juice, orange & pineapple concentrate, sugar, honey, garlic, ginger, poppy seed, mustard powder, soy sauce, black pepper, salt, a few drops of roasted sesame seed oil, a little extra virgin olive oil and canola oil. The salad is made with various lettuces, tomato, cucumber, onion, feta cheese, a little sharp Vermont cheddar, grilled chicken, Mandarin orange slices and topped with a few chow mein noodles. This makes a really nice meal and the dressing and salad ingredients can be adjusted to suit your taste.

I would eat a large salad every few days for a meal but my wife gets tired of salad before I do. I just hate to see the lettuce and spinach go to waste but every year I throw away a huge pile of lettuce because we can't eat it fast enough. One thing about lettuce is that when it is ready you don't want to leave it long in the garden or it will ruin.
