Health and fertility benefits of Grilled Lettuces
Romaine lettuce contains chromium, which helps maintain normal blood glucose levels by making insulin more efficient. The chromium in romaine lettuce also promotes weight loss due to its ability to help control cravings, reduce hunger, and control fat in the blood.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 heads Belgian endive, halved lengthwise
1 large head radicchio, cut into 6 to 8 wedges
1 head romaine lettuce, quartered
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Instructions
Prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Drizzle 1 tablespoon of oil over the endive, radicchio and romaine, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the lettuces until they are crisp-tender and browned in spots, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes. Coarsely chop the lettuces, then toss them in a large bowl with the remaining oil and vinegar. Season the salad, to taste, with more salt and pepper. Serve warm.
