My mom's killed lettuce recipe is very simple and basic. Growing up in the North Carolina mountains, everyone knew what killed lettuce was and how to fix it. In the South, it is usually served with pinto beans and cornbread.

Add green onions to bacon grease; cook and stir until onions reach desired tenderness, about 1 minute. Pour onions and bacon grease over lettuce; toss lightly. Top with crumbled bacon and serve.
