Lettuce Challenge

Colleen and I have been bad lately.

We’ve been getting lazy with our fruits and veggies and, as a result, we are accumulating a backlog of produce in our fridge. Particularly troublesome is the amount of lettuce we have floating around our fridge. We usually get about 2 heads of lettuce from our CSA but this week we ended up with 2 heads and a bag of spring mix. Plus, I don’t even think we have touched our lettuce from last week.

So, what’s a couple of crazy kids like us supposed to do? Sit around and cry about it? Maybe.

Wait, no!

We gotta fight. Fight hard! That’s why we are creating a challenge to ourselves (and maybe our readers): every meal this week needs to include lettuce. I’m not talking about 7 days of garden salads either; we’ve tried that and it just doesn’t work. We’ve gotten some good suggestions via Facebook (lettuce wraps sound good) but we still have a long way to go before we can meet this challenge. Please, oh fair blog readers, supply us with your favorite non-salady uses of lettuce. You will be rewarded with our eternal love.

Oh, and stay tuned for the results of our challenge. Can we make all 7 days?

  • I was going to say lettuce wraps, but I guess someone beat me to it. How about tacos or sandwiches with lettuce as a condiment? Or feed it to some rabbits?
