Dovetailing Tips: This week we have three unique and woncerful salads. You can really get yourself ahead today by selecting and preparing greens for all of them at once. Today's recipe calls for four handfuls of "mixed green's, tomorrow's for 5 cups ofyour choice of mix of lettuce greens, and Wednesday's for one head of iceberg letuce, shredded. By paying attention today you can really get ahead by including the same types of greens throughout the three salads. Even if you choose to mis it up a little for variety, keep things simple enough that you can shread it all today. Store it in plastic bags in the fridge and it will save you major time the next two days!

Also grate an additional one cup of mozzarella. You will use it Friday.
