HOW DO I MAKE GRILLED ROMAINE SALAD?

Start by slicing 2 heads of romaine lettuce in half. Drizzle each side of the lettuce with olive oil and top with a dash of salt & pepper.

Once your grill is hot, cook the lettuce for approximately 5 minutes on each side or until you have desired grill marks.

When you are finished cooking, remove the lettuce from your grill. You can either leave the lettuce as is and have each person cut their own head as they eat, or chop everything up and throw it in a big bowl. Top with shredded parmesan cheese, if desired.
