LEAF LETTUCE BREAD

Leaf Lettuce Bread image

I know this sounds weird. This is from a family cookbook and the recipe was submitted by my husbands grandmother. This is a quick bread. Try it! Note: this recipe is for red or green leaf lettuce, I put in leaf lettuce but the computer changes it to leaves.
