    What a great post idea for right now! I love salad and they usually include romaine. I am excited to make these salads during this time where romaine might not be the best idea.

    We love salads that don't include any lettuce. We often do cucumber salad with dill or cucumber and tomato salad.

    Good options! Spinach is my favorite base for a salad. But I also have a kale/quinoa mix that I really like.

    This comes at the perfect time. Lunchtime came around today and I found myself CRAVING a salad. Of course, because of the romaine scare I was afraid to order anything with lettuce, but these ideas are great!!

    I think I might be done with romaine...from conventional growers at least. These are all fantastic sounding and will be trying several if not all. THanks!
