Iceberg Wedges with Avocado Ranch - Cool and Refreshing! |
If you are like me, you may be thinking Iceberg Lettuce is so boring. I will be honest - I have never been a big fan of plain 'ole Iceberg Lettuce. But let's face it - it is much more economical than organic spring mix or baby green salad (both of which I love!) I hope you will try this light and refreshing salad. I think it will change the way you think of Iceberg Lettuce. It is cool, crisp and light. Perfect for these hot evenings we have been having in Alabama. It also goes well with grilled steak or chicken. Hope you enjoy!
