Leaf Lettuce
Leaf Lettuce is a crisp, leafy vegetable used worldwide in salads, sandwiches and as a fresh wrap leaf; varieties range from loose-leaf to compact heads. It is commonly valued for its mild flavor and high water content, making it a staple in many cuisines and light meals. Nutritionally, Leaf Lettuce is very low in energy at 20kcal per 100g and provides a small amount of fiber while contributing vitamins rather than calories, so it’s often used to add volume and nutrients without much energy. Despite being low in protein and calorie-dense compounds, Leaf Lettuce is a useful source of fat‑soluble micronutrients such as vitamin K and vitamin A precursors and works well as a low-calorie way to boost vegetable intake.
