The benefit of using one of these shredding methods is that you can shred just<\/em> the amount of lettuce you need.<\/p>\r\nHowever, if you find yourself with some leftovers, store the shredded lettuce in the refrigerator for up to a week. Simply line a plastic zip-top bag with a paper towel to absorb any extra moisture, and place the shredded lettuce in the bag. Zip the bag almost all the way closed, leaving one corner slightly open to allow for airflow.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t
