Corn - 6 earsSlicer Cucumbers - 2 cucumbers
Lettuce - one bag
Wash your lettuce, and remove any damaged leaves. Dry your lettuce thoroughly. Gently pat the lettuce dry with a paper towel or dishtowel. Wrap the lettuce in a dry paper towel, and place it in a plastic bag or storage container. To maintain the proper temperature and moisture level, store your lettuce in the crisper drawer in your fridge. Replace the paper towel anytime it feels wet. This is the key to keeping your lettuce from getting slimy. Check your lettuce every day or two, and remove any leaves that are beginning to go bad. This will keep the rest of the lettuce from spoiling.

Along with eating them alone, they can be used in jams, jellies, and mixed with other fruits. You can combine other ingredients like yogurt and seeds to create a delicious and healthy summer dish.
