I’m really looking into easier ways that we can grow our own food ourselves. So many times I’m just afraid of buying any lettuce at the store for fear that it’s tainted somehow and will make me sick. I’ve totally given up making salads for myself because of that.
This is my solution. Growing my own little salad garden inside. I can always have something growing. And it really only takes a little bit of effort and what fun it will be to watch it grow in my kitchen!
You will also need to get one of these growing containers for your salad garden. I’ve looked at a few of them and I really like this one the best of all.

Grandma Clara’s Wilted Lettuce Salad Recipe
Ingredients

Wash your lettuce really good and set aside to drain. Fry the bacon until crisp. Save the grease that’s in the frying pan from cooking the bacon. Now put your salad in the bowl, Cut up your green onion add sugar and vinegar and 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease. Then mix together and serve. I love this! You can add salt and pepper if you like even mix in some cucumber and carrots slices. Whatever floats your boat.
