Iceberg salad is a refreshing dish typically made with crisp iceberg lettuce as the base, complemented by a variety of vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, and red onions. Popular across American cuisine and often served with dressings like ranch or vinaigrette, it is a staple at barbecues, diners, and family dinners. Iceberg lettuce is known for its mild flavor and high water content, making the salad hydrating and low in calories. While it offers small amounts of vitamins like A and K, it is less nutrient-dense compared to darker leafy greens. The salad's healthiness depends largely on toppings and dressings; lighter options ensure it remains a low-calorie dish, while heavier, creamy dressings or added cheeses may increase fat and calorie content. Versatile and easy to prepare, iceberg salad is a simple way to include vegetables in your diet with customizable ingredients for added nutrition.
