• Cut the celery, green pepper, cucumbers, and tomatoes into bite-sized pieces and set aside in large bowl. Slice the mushrooms thinly and add them to the rest of the vegetables.
• Dry the lettuce with paper towels, tear them into bite-sized pieces, and add them to the other vegetables. Toss the salad.
• Dry the spinach leaves with paper towels. Line the salad bowl with the spinach leaves so that they peek out around the edge.

LETTUCE WEDGE SALAD WITH TRISHA'S EASY THOUSAND ISLAND DRESSING

Steps:

• Wash the lettuce and remove any damaged or wilted outer leaves. Remove the lettuce core and discard. Cut the head into quarters and set it aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and the ketchup. Add the Tabasco sauce and pepper to taste. Place a lettuce wedge on each serving plate. Drizzle with the dressing.
• Quick Lettuce Core Removal Tip
• Slam the head of lettuce down on a cutting board, core-side down. The core will separate from the rest of the head with a twist and come out easily.
