Another Lettuce Mix for 5-Ingredient Salad

I talk about and publish variations of this all the time. :o) When we find or create a good thing, we need to keep it in the forefront of our minds.

1 Romaine lettuce

1 mini green Frisee lettuce

1 mini red Boston (butter) lettuce

Slice Frisee, Boston and Romaine lengthwise-twice into quartered heads, leaving attached at the stem end. Turn and slice crosswise into the strainer basket of a salad spinner. Rinse and spin several times.

2 mini English cucumbers

1/3 of a large head of red cabbage

2 sm.-med. Vidalia onions

Scrub cucumbers and take a little of the stem-end peel if you want. Slice into cross sections and add to the spun-dry lettuce mix. Slice-cube the cabbage, half and slice the onions. Toss into the lettuce mix. Cover and store in refrigerator. Keeps for 2-5 days.

This salad travels well. Wherever you are, when it's Salad Time, put a big handful of lettuce mix in a bowl, slice tomatoes and avocados on top. Toss, dress and serve. . .Lin
