Use Spinach Instead Of Lettuce

Members Were Sparked

Instead of lettuce in salads and sandwiches, I use fresh spinach. It has the same texture but more vitamins and minerals.

MORE INFORMATION:
You can also mix fresh spinach with lettuce in a salad. If you tear the lettuce and spinach into bite size pieces, your family probably won't even notice.
