Simple Butter Lettuce Salad with Herb Lemon Green Peppercorn Dressing

It helps if you have the most beautiful heads of lettuce and herbs picked fresh for you that morning by B.D. His herbs are so tender and delicate just like him.

1. Wash and Dry Lettuce.

2. Mince a big shallot and squeeze meyer lemon juice over it. Let stand for at least 15 minutes before proceeding.

3. Chop up dill, mint, parsley and mix into lemon juice.

4. Mince up fresh green peppercorns and add to mixture.

5. If you are not feeding vegetarians, add some Worcestershire sauce and honey to the dressing. Tonight I did not do this.

6. Add salt and pepper and then whisk in olive oil.

7. Toss dressing over lettuce and serve.
