Ways to use up lettuce

Bunless Burger

Spring Roll Stuffer 

Finely shred any cos or iceberg lettuce you have handy to use as a substitute for wombok or cabbage in our Chicken Spring Rolls. 

San Choy Bow

Make the most of leftover cos, gem or iceberg lettuce and use the leaves for lettuce cups. Check out our Prawn San Choy Bow recipe.

Charred Iceberg Lettuce

Throw lettuce wedges on the barbie and you have a tasty salad base that works with any main. Try our Charred Iceberg Salad with Buttermilk and Chive Dressing.

Smart Storage

To extend the shelf life of lettuce, remove the core, then wrap in foil and store in the veggie crisper. Revive wilted leaves by submerging them in a bowl of iced water for 15 minutes.
