Iceberg Lettuce

This towering salad—built with the components of a muffuletta sandwich like mortadella and an olive dressing—is ready for a party.

The best salad is really a deconstructed Italian sandwich, complete with an oregano and red wine vinegar dressing that tastes just like how your deli does it.

This flavorful dinner salad—inspired by the street food favorite—is made super speedy with the addition of store-bought rotisserie chicken.

Great with vegetables, salad, or pizza, this dressing is all Big Ranch Energy with added depth and nuttiness from toasted seaweed snacks and sesame seeds.

It’s not like a regular wedge; it’s a cool wedge—and by cool we mean stuffed with pickled jalapeños and paper-thin slices of mortadella and drizzled with tangy buttermilk dressing.

Here’s one classic, perfectly executed BLT. Plus, grilling the bacon will save your kitchen from a greasy mess.

Your answer to the age-old question "What can I make ahead of time and throw in my bag to feed myself (and, okay, my friends) when we finally make it to the beach/park/festival/fireworks?"

The shattering panko crispiness of katsu-style cutlets plus the fiery heat of Nashville-style hot chicken, all in one sandwich.

We KonMari'd the classic wedge, got rid of all the extraneous ingredients, and ended up with a salad that sparks joy: crunchy iceberg and a rich, tangy dressing.

If this brings back memories of the “house salad” from that Italian-American restaurant you grew up eating at, then we consider our jobs done.

You’re going to get what seems like a lot of dressing from this wedge salad recipe, but all those crevices in the iceberg lettuce will use it up.

In case you were wondering, yes, it must be Hellmann’s.

The iceberg lettuce is sliced into rounds instead of angled wedges, exposing the entire surface to the blue cheese dressing and toppings.

Who doesn’t love a wedge? Ask your butcher to cut slab bacon into thick slices (about ¼") to yield nice meaty pieces once they’re crisped on the grill.

As any deli aficionado will tell you, shredded lettuce—especially iceberg—is a glorious thing.

Iceberg lettuce and watercress stir-fry in a flash and serve as a crisp-tender counterpoint to crunchy shallots.
