California Lettuce Salad

We now learn how to prepare California lettuce salad. To make 6 servings we need the following ingredients:-

  • ¼ large head iceburg, bronze,or butter lettuce torn into bite-sized pieces
  • ½ cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 large tomato, chopped
  • ⅓ cup chopped purple onion
  • ½ avocado, cubed (¾ cup)
  • 1 recipe citrus salad dressing
Combine all ingredients and toss with dressing just before serving

Note: You won't miss the oil in this salad and neither will your friends.

Variations: 
  1. Replace avocado with 1 cup of sunflower-seed sprouts or steamed soybean sprouts.
  2. Add mustard or watercress sprouts, or wheat or rye sprouts.
  3. Thinly sliced pieces of chilled raw zucchini or jicama may replace the cucumber.
