Salads

Fruity Salads
Who needs lettuce for a salad? Lettuce makes a good salad but is not a necessity. Think about all the salads you have eaten and not all of them have had lettuce in them. Fruit is a great substitution.

Its early evening and you're hungry for something to eat but you aren't sure what. Aha, a salad sounds good, doesn't it?

Storing lettuce doesn't have to be a chore. You can get good, fresh, crisp green lettuce any time, all the time when you know what to do.
