For Preparing Iceberg Lettuce
Stir crisp shredded lettuce, into a bowl of soup. While it will wilt and soften, it will also retain a bit of refreshing crunch and add another layer of texture and sweet flavor to the soup.
With its high water content, iceberg is a great addition to any juice blend or smoothie.
Use as a wrap for chicken or tuna salad, stir fries or in place of tortillas for a low calorie “burrito”.
Briefly grill and chop for an interesting twist on salad. The heat brings out sweetness in the lettuce.
Use in place of half of the basil in your favorite pesto recipe for a milder-tasting sauce.
