My Merienda Recipe

Everytime my mother go to Divisoria to buy supplies for our store, I always request to buy lettuce.

What you need? A Lettuce, mayonnaise w/ pickles spread and a ketsup. Clean the lettuce in a clear water and then rip it for every sleeves. Mix mayo and ketsup depends on what your taste like. Dip the lettuce into the sauce and eat it. ^^,

Enjoy!

Lettuce is a temperate annual or biennial plant most often grown as a leaf vegetable. In some countries, it is typically eaten cold and raw, in salads, hamburgers, tacos, and many other dishes. In some places, including China, lettuce is typically eaten cooked and use of the stem is as important as use of the leaf. Both the English name and the Latin name of the genus are derived from lactis, the Latin word for "milk", referring to its milky juice of the plant.

The Lettuce plant has a short stem initially (a rosette growth habit), but when it blooms the stem lengthens and branches, and it produces many flower heads that look like those of dandelions, but smaller. This is called bolting. When grown to eat, lettuce is harvested before it bolts. Lettuce is used as a food plant by the larvae of some Lepidoptera.
