Romaine — crunchy lettuce, salad base.

Higher nutrition than iceberg. Volume-eating champion at ~10 kcal/cup.

Best for

  • volume eating — 17 kcal / 100g keeps plates big
  • fiber and micronutrient gaps on high-protein diets

Watch out

  • drowning produce in creamy dressings you did not log
  • dried fruit or juice versions if you meant fresh

How to log it

Log the form you eat (raw, cooked, juiced). 1 cup chopped (~47g) is the practical unit in the app.

Where it fits the day

Almost always fits as the volume layer. If fat/sauce is the real meal, log that honestly.
