Can you freeze lettuce in freezer bags?

No. When you freeze lettuce and then defrost it you get something akin to what you get when you defrost spinach.
Please don't freeze it. (06/13/2007)

Ms April is correct! Lettuce is one thing that is completely un-freezable. However, I make all of my soup stock from scratch and keep a bag in the freezer for all of my veggie scraps and I always include lettuce, especially romaine. (06/15/2007)

Lettuce has such a high water content that when you freeze it the ice crystals pretty much ruin it. (06/18/2007)
