Lettuce
Nutrition Information
All lettuce is low in kilojoules and fat. The darker green leaves on the
outside of lettuce contain more nutrients than the inner leaves, so try to
save as many of the outer leaves as possible. By varying the greens in your
salad, you can enhance the nutritional content, as well as vary the tastes
and textures.
