Default Lettuce – winter salad recipes anyone?

I have 3 romaine hearts in the fridge that I must eat in between today and Tuesday at the latest because they’ve been in there for 4 days already and I don’t want to have to throw them out. The problem is that the cold weather is here and I don’t feel like having a salad. Anyone has a good winter salad recipe? Something warm and yummy please : )

You could cook it if you don't want a salad. Check not2late's blog (the entry in June) for some ideas.

Thanks for the link Georgiana! I will check not2late's blog and take notes for the coming weeks. Funny enough today is warm and humid again so I’ll end having a regular salad when I get home.

Well, I'm late on replying but I had this recipe in my files. The original recipe makes a lot but you'll get the idea of what ingredients to use if you're interested.

Quote:
Grilled Hearts of Romaine

Something different to do with that lettuce!

Ingredients
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 clove garlic clove
  • 2 heads hearts of romaine
  • 1 dash kosher salt
  • ½ cup parmesan
  • black pepper, to taste

Directions
  1. Mix together oil, lemon juice, and finely minced garlic clove.
  2. Cut hearts of romaine in half lengthwise and bruish with marinade mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  3. Refrigerate until just before grilling.
  4. Grill just a couple of minutes until leaves start to wilt. Then turn over and grill a few more minutes.
  5. Dust with the grated cheese and enjoy.

Thanks for the recipe mizski I’ll probably try it tonight or tomorrow. Yesterday I cleaned the 3 romaine hearts I had and threw out a lot of it - yes I waited too long. Still, I have lettuce for the rest of the week.

Yesterday I had my two first ground beef lettuce wraps for breakfast ~ YUM!

And for lunch I heated 2 cups of chopped lettuce in the microwave and covered them with a Roquefort sauce ~ double YUM! (I also had chicken, don't think I'm starving myself)
