Romaine is considered one of the most mild flavored leafy greens. For this reason it is a very common green used in the making of green smoothies. It also imparts a very nice creaminess to a green smoothie that many find enjoyable. Romaine lettuce can significantly contribute to a healthy heart with all its folic acid, Vitamin C, beta-carotene, potassium, and fiber. Romaine can keep up to 7 days if kept dry in a refrigerator; also be sure to store it away from ethylene producing fruits such as apples and pears as the ethylene will cause the lettuce leaves to turn brown.
