Have ya'll tried grilled lettuce?? Oh my! It is so good! My brother was telling me about how he's been doing it. So, of course I had to google it. I feel like I'm totally late to the party. Its SO GOOD!!!
I found Grillin Fools, awesome website! Step by step instructions. There's a whole section on grilling veggies and fruit. I've got some experimenting to do.
What I did was so easy and super yummy. Handy Hunk even tried a bite and said it was good. (Coming from him- is a BIG thing. He's a massive meatatarian.)
I put minced garlic, Garlic Olive Oil (I get it from The Queen Creek Olive Mill), roasted sesame seeds, black pepper, and a pinch of sea salt. Then I grilled it. I think I should of left it to grill just a bit longer, but this was my first time and I was a little unsure about it. As soon as I took it off I put some shredded Parmesan cheese on it. Then on one half I put the dried cranberries and sliced almonds. I poured a little bit of a sweet balsamic vinaigrette on it and Oh my! I ended up doing the same thing to the other half. I can't wait to do it again.
It sounds yummy - I do think lettuce is a great food to cook with. I've had it in soups (added at the last minute), but never grilled. I'm going to have to try that one !
