More Summer Salads

As this is written; it is about 95 degrees in greater Boston, so it’s pretty timely to be talking about salads. The next salad on my list of summer specials is a Mexican Lettuce Wrap. A great addition to your menu for the end of the summer. It offers not only a cool alternative to other sandwiches and mainstays on the menu but it’s a great addition any time of the year. It encompasses thinly sliced chicken breast with just the right amount of salsa and Mexican flavors. Put this one on your specials list for the rest of the summer;

Boston lettuce, leaves, 24 each
