Salad with lettuce and croutons is a simple yet popular dish enjoyed worldwide, often originating from Western cuisine traditions. The base typically consists of crisp, fresh lettuce, such as romaine or iceberg, providing fiber, vitamins A and K, and hydration due to its high water content. Croutons, made from toasted or baked bread, add crunch and texture but are generally higher in refined carbohydrates and sodium. This salad is often customizable, serving as a foundation for toppings like cheese, protein, or dressings. While the lettuce contributes to a nutrient-rich base, the nutritional value of the salad can depend on added ingredients, particularly dressings, which may be high in calories, fats, or sugars. As a versatile option, this salad can be tailored to fit a variety of diets or preferences, making it an excellent light starter or side dish.
