Don’t knock it ’til you try it.

grilledromainesalad-5We can all grill a burger.  We can all grill a hot dog.  But can you grill… LETTUCE? 

I guess the question isn’t can you, but WILL you?  You should.  It’s goooood.  

grilledromainesalad-6I’m in love with this idea for summer!  It’s fun, different, and a whole heck of a lot better for you than a burger piled high (not that I’m one to judge).  But it’s nice to have a change of pace once in a while. 

grilledromainesalad-3Don’t be afraid! 

This is like the modern day version of the wedge salad. And who doesn’t love a good wedge? 

Shoe, or salad!

grilledromainesaladBe creative with your grilled salad.  I like to keep it simple, as usual.
