Description
Finding the right combination of tart, tangy, rich, tasty and healthy is not easy when you need a quick and easy side dish for a last minute dinner. This Grilled Lettuce with Cotija Cheese is the perfect paring for a summer barbecue. If grilling is not on the agenda, then a skillet will do just fine. The dressing is simple. It is added to grilled romaine lettuce, which is topped with bacon and cotija or farmer cheese.
