How to Make Banana Lettuce Salad

  1. Wash and chop 5 cups of crisp lettuce (e.g., romaine, butter, or a mix).
  2. Slice 2 ripe bananas into half-moons.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup Miracle Whip, 2 tablespoons milk, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gently combine the chopped lettuce and banana slices in a large bowl.
  5. Pour the creamy dressing over the lettuce and banana mixture.
  6. Toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet and savory goodness! This salad tastes even better if it sits for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
