Fire up the grill to make scrumptious, smoky Grilled Romaine Lettuce.
Grilled Romaine Lettuce with Easy Russian Dressing
Grilled Romaine Lettuce takes just a few minutes and is amazing.
This is a 5-to-9-minute (including prep), 2-ingredient recipe you will love, Grilled Romaine Lettuce. The grilled flavor on this salad is powerful. You won't believe the flavor. The original recipe came from our friend, Jim Barnes. Thank you, Jim! And it's SO easy, that is, if you know how to work your grill.
Don's the grillmaster in our family. I pretend I can't even light the grill. We enjoyed this last night with Easy Russian Dressing drizzled over it. This is the grill (affiliate link) that Don has, and he really likes it. We've had it for a few years and it is holding up well. It is not hard to use, I simply refuse to learn how to use it. 🙂
