I'm assuming you mean 1/2 head of lettuce. I used iceberg as this classic salad calls for. I didn't think 2/3 cup of mayo was quite enough. I used light and increased it to 3/4. I also sprinkled some parmesan cheese on top to give the dressing a nice flavor. There are many versions to this salad and yours is a good one.
