Sometimes the simple things are the best...Another one of the recipes that I grew up with way back when... If you don't grow your own, you can get leaf lettuce at a produce stand, a farmer's market or many grocery stores carry it...

Steps:
- Put the Mayonnaise, Vinegar and Sugar into a bowl and stir until mixed --
- Place in the refrigerator to allow the ingredients to blend and to allow time for the sugar to dissolve --
- Remove the individual leaves from the main plant -- Do not cut, pull them apart --
- Rinse each leaf under cold water and shake excess water off the leaves --
- Remove the tender portion of the leaf from the stalk and discard the stalk --
- 'Tear' leaves into whatever size you think will fit into your mouth --
- This is enough dressing for about half a large bunch of lettuce -- Remaining lettuce can be stored in the refrigerater, covered, for use tomorrow --
- Start by tossing a third or so of the lettuce with the dressing and add lettuce until the lettuce is coated well with the dressing -- (you don't want a pool of sauce in the bottom of the bowl but you want the lettuce well coated) --
- This is best if the lettuce is mixed with the dressing just prior to eating -- The flavor won't change but the lettuce tends to get soggy after about an hour after mixed with the dressing -- .

WILTED LEAF LETTUCE SALAD
When I think of my favorite meals from childhood, this salad comes to mind. Nothing beats garden lettuce wilted with bacon drippings, and no other recipe better captures the taste of long ago.

SIMPLE LETTUCE SALAD
MY Mother often fixed this salad when I was a child. I grew up on a farm and most of our food came right from the garden. We especially liked this in the spring, when early leaf lettuce appeared. After a long winter of cooked vegetables, this was a real treat.

- Add the crouton ingredients to a baking sheet and toss together until evenly coated. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Cook your eggs. I boiled mine for 8 minutes. Let them cool in cold water until you're ready to peel them & assemble the salad.
- Meanwhile, add all the dressing ingredients to a small bowl except for the olive oil and dill. Slowly whisk the oil in a little bit at a time until you have a nicely emulsified mixture. Add the dill in right before you're ready to serve the salad.

- Hard-boil, peel and slice eggs. Place 2 eggs in a sauce pan. Completely cover with water. Place on high heat and bring to a boil. Let them boil for 10 minutes. Remove eggs from sauce pan with a slotted spoon. Place in a bowl filled with ice and cool water and let them sit in the water for 5 minutes. Remove the eggs and wipe with a kitchen cloth. Peel the eggs and slice them into quarters.
- Rinse, spin and chop the lettuce. Cut off the core of the lettuce (the white part at the end) then discard. Carefully separate the lettuce leaves then thoroughly rinse them. Place in a salad spinner and spin until dry. (If you do not have a salad spinner, dry the leaves with a clean kitchen towel or good quality paper towel.) Stack a quarter of the lettuce leaves on a chopping board. Slice in the middle across the core then chop the leaves. (Please see step by step photos in the post to see what I mean.Arrange the lettuce leaves on a large platter.
- Arrange the salad. Arrange the other vegetables over the lettuce leaves: the cucumber, avocado, carrots, and red onions. Also add the hard-boiled eggs.Cover the salad with plastic wrap and place in the fridge until ready to serve!
- Make the dressing: Combine all the ingredients for the dressing in a small mixing bowl or a liquid measuring cup. Whisk well to combine. The dressing will thicken up.

- Step 1In a large mixing bowl, combine the vinegar with the mustard. Whisk well, then add the herbs along with some salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the oil, checking about 1/4 cup in for acidity, and whisk until well emulsified. Once the dressing is made, pour most of it into another bowl, leaving just a coating in the large bowl.
- Step 2To the large bowl, add the lettuce, cucumber, and green onions. Toss well, adding a bit more dressing, if necessary (you want the lettuce JUST coated with dressing).
- Step 3Place the "salad" onto plates, then top with the 3 avocado slices (nicely fanned if you please); then spoon the shrimps over the top. Spoon or drizzle with the remaining dressing and serve.

- Classic Caesar Salad. A great Caesar salad gets its swagger from a great dressing. Squeamish about raw egg yolks and anchovies? Sorry. Yolks are what give richness to the emulsion, while anchovies provide a briny blast (and that whole umami thing).
- Little Gem Salad with Lemon Cream and Hazelnuts. Wait, whipped cream in a salad? Yep. This rich, bright lemon cream is perfectly suited for Little Gems. “The cream takes over your whole mouth,” says chef Joshua McFadden, “while the lemon juice acts as a bridge.”
- Black Tie Crudite with Whipped Ricotta. Intentionally burning vegetables—it’s a thing! The burnt onion powder adds a smoky, slightly bitter finish to the rich dip, and is responsible for the black part of this tuxedo-inspired crudite.
- Seared Steak Lettuce Cups. We like using tender butter lettuce for these edible cups. View Recipe.
- Iceberg Wedges with Grilled Bacon and Croutons. Who doesn’t love a wedge? Ask your butcher to cut slab bacon into thick slices (about ¼") to yield nice meaty pieces once they’re crisped on the grill.
- Steakhouse Salad with Red Chile Dressing and Peanuts. The steak can be marinated a day in advance—in fact, it gets better. Dress the salad at the last minute, so the lettuce doesn't wilt.
- Green Goddess Cobb Salad. To make addictively crispy chicken skin, turn it often in the skillet, until it looks like bacon. View Recipe.
- Grilled Little Gem Salad with Pita Croutons. Yes—you can grill lettuce. And it’s worth it. View Recipe.
- Grilled Vegetable Salad with Raw Green Mole. This uncooked mole gets heat from jalapeño, cooling freshness from lettuce and herbs, and a touch of richness from toasted seeds.
- Pickled Vegetable Salad with Nori Vinaigrette. It might seem fussy to separate the vegetables when pickling, but if they’re combined, the colors will bleed and they won’t be as vibrant.

- Simple Butter Lettuce Salad. In just five minutes, you’re going to have this super simple, low-calorie Butter Lettuce Salad to enjoy. Butterhead lettuce is my favorite which is why I put this recipe at the top of the list.
- Lettuce Salad with Tomato and Cucumber. This next salad, Lettuce with Tomato and Cucumber, is quite similar to my grandmother’s recipe for summertime get-togethers.
- Classic Waldorf Salad. Apples and walnuts in a salad? Count me in! This Classic Waldorf Salad is one of the few ways my mother will eat mayonnaise. However, if you’re not a big fan of this dressing, I’ve prepared this salad before with plain yogurt and a dash of pesto, as well as sour cream and some sugar.
- Lettuce Salad with Caper Vinaigrette. While similar to olives, capers do have a more acquired taste. If you’ve not had the chance to eat capers before, this Lettuce Salad with Caper Vinaigrette is a great and easy option to help you warm up to them.
- Shrimp Caesar Salad. This Shrimp Caesar Salad is a healthy recipe, perfect for those fond of Cajun cuisine. While the salad calls for romaine lettuce, I’ve added my favorite, butterhead, too, and it’s brought a juciness that goes well with the buttery tenderness of the shrimp.
- French Butter-Lettuce Salad. French Butter-Lettuce Salad; one of my favorite sides to pair with hearty dinners because of how light and refreshing it tastes!
- The Best Green Salad Recipe. This is quite a simple lettuce salad, but incredibly yummy and perfect for family dinners. Or, if you’re interested in doubling or tripling the recipe, you can serve this at a dinner party or larger gathering.
- Bacon Avocado Chicken Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette. Controversial statement incoming; I don’t like bacon. And, I’m also not a fan of adding it to salads.
- BLTA Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps. I know, I know, another bacon recipe. What am I doing? Well, it wouldn’t make sense to leave these Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps off of the list.
- Fattoush Salad. This recipe is a great way to enjoy romaine lettuce. Another fan favorite at my family dinners, Fattoush Salad, packs a zippy punch because it calls for lemon, garlic, and sumac.
