Notes

*1 Does not have to be ice burg lettuce. I used just salad leaves for update photos. 
*2 Mozzarella cheese can be substituted the cheese you have in your fridge.  I used tasty cheese. 
*3 If you don't have purple onion, can be substituted with brown onion like I did.
*4 It will make about 2-3 tbsp mix. This recipe only requires 1 tbsp of the mix.
