About Iceberg lettuce salad

Iceberg lettuce salad is a crisp, refreshing dish often served as a base for various toppings and dressings. Originating from the United States, iceberg lettuce became popular for its mild flavor and crunchy texture. A basic salad may include chopped or wedged iceberg lettuce paired with vegetables like cucumbers, tomatoes, and carrots, along with protein options such as grilled chicken or eggs. Common dressings include ranch, blue cheese, and vinaigrettes, though some may add higher sodium or fat content. Iceberg lettuce is low in calories and provides hydration due to its high water content, but it has fewer nutrients compared to darker leafy greens like spinach or kale. Adding colorful vegetables and lean proteins can boost the salad's overall nutritional value. While often enjoyed as a side dish, careful ingredient choices can transform it into a nourishing, balanced meal or snack.
