Red Lettuce

Red Lettuce is a tender, red-tinged leaf commonly used raw in salads, sandwiches and as a fresh garnish; varieties are grown worldwide and prized for their mild, slightly sweet flavor and crisp texture. Nutritionally it is very low in calories while providing notable amounts of micronutrients — particularly vitamin K, at 101µg per 100g — along with small amounts of fiber and plant protein. As a leafy green, it contributes to bone and blood health through its vitamin K content and supplies carotenoids and other phytochemicals that support vision and act as mild antioxidants; it’s a lightweight, nutrient-focused way to boost the greens in a meal.
