What else to do with very finely minced lettuce

[mickeydownunder]

ok, normally I would be ok. I had a party recently and wanted to to shred lettuce and picked the wrong number blade for the food processor

I know I can use this in wrapped spring rolls

but was wondering if someone can suggest if there is a way to use

thanks

WHOO HOO!

Lettuce soup is surprisingly delicious. (I've not used the above posted recipe however)

Or use the lettuce in tacos; inside a veggie-pita wrap (we call it a salad sandwich).

I like fine cut lettuce on taco's, tostados, or smothered burritos.
Even on top a a nice deli type sandwich it is a nice change from just a piece of lettuce. Years ago when I first started work in the deli when customers wanted lettuce on their sandwich we used the finely cut lettuce.

This is a unique recipe Leaf Lettuce Bread ( Note: the Nutrition Facts are for the whole loaf ) You could make as Xmas food gifts for your more adventurous friends

This really has nothing to do with the lettuce thing but I am curious in most of your posts you do a "Whoo Hoo" or something like that.
What is that to mean and is that a saying in Australia?
Just curious.

Gday MANY years ago when I first joined food.com in 2002, it started off as a joke in one of my postings that I was very E-X-C-I-T-E-D to post and if you knew me in real life, I have a passion to LIVE life EVERY day and in EVERY way!

So it sort of became my Signature MO here...

I was proud to be chosen Member of the Month for November

my WHOO HOO reference is for my other passion of old steam trains! Have the train whistles and certificates of driving them too!

If my WHOO HOO is not everyone's cup of tea (so to speak), just skip over the excitement and if it interests people, just read my postings too

Hope you have a great day too and thanks for asking!

How interesting to read your Member of the Month story. How thrilling to know that you drive trains. How did you become interested in them?
Congratulations on being Member of the Month for November, that's a nice honor. I know they feature a cook each day and three favorite recipes but where do I find the feature of Member of the Month? I am probably looking right at it but am not seeing where to click to read it.
I think your Whoo Hoo is just fine, I was just curious as to the why behind it. You go girl! Whoo Hoo to you!

MICKEYDOWNUNDER:
Good Day to you. Mickey, I have used it in making my recipe of Italian minestrone soup. As you know cabbage is of choice but I didn't have any at the time so I subst. the chopped up lettuce & I could not tell the differance.

Also Mickey, some recipes I have seen use chopped up lettuce in making SPLIT GREEN PEA soup.

Anyway Mickey I hope this info helps you.

Enjoy the rest of the day my friend.
