SMOKED SAUSAGE LETTUCE SALAD image

This salad recipe is an original. I tried it one night just to see how it would do. Uncertain about my finished product, and never seeing this before, it was a self made contest. I could toss it if necessary. The opposite happened and I have been enjoying this salad as a complete meal since. Let me know what you think of...
