- 2 tsp sunflower seeds, lightly toasted*
- 2 tsp pine nuts, lightly toasted*
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Heat the grill to medium-high.
- Carve the romaine lettuce in half lengthwise. Leave the stem on, to hold the leaves together. Rub the lettuce halves all over with the olive oil.
