I used to buy those boxed salads and they would last for a couple of days before they got slimy and gross. You know what I'm talking about. I finally discovered the trick to long lasting fresh salads!
It is SO simple I don't know why I haven't been doing this before. Ok so what you do is put a paper towel on top of the lettuce to soak up the extra moisture that forms....seriously it's that simple.
I usually do two layers and switch it out every couple of days. This package will last at least a week, when my other packages of lettuce would be gross in a couple of days. One of the best tips I have found!
