Hi there! About 20 years ago I started a foolproof concept to use up my leftover lettuce and greens. It is awesome for me.
I put stock in a pot (or water if I don't have stock), then bring it to a boil. Add seasoning. I peel then dice one potato and add it to the boil. Boil for about 10 minutes until softened. Then add every bit of lettuce and greens that I have. Even the wilted stuff. I have also added carrot greens and celery greens if I have them. Then remove from heat. Use an immersion blender to incorporate all of it and then pass it through a strainer. Pour into a bowl with a dollop of goat cheese or croutons or drizzle of good oil. It is a delicious bowl of soup. And no waste!
If you give it a try let me know. I think it's delightful!
