Convert Shredded Lettuce measurements
Shredded Lettuce Measurement Converter
Use the tool below to convert shredded lettuce from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.
Taco and burger recipes may list shredded lettuce in cups or handfuls, while the net weight on the bag is in grams or ounces. One metric cup (250 ml) is about 75 grams (2.65 ounces), so the converter can tell you how far a 200 gram bag will go.
Crisp iceberg shreds spring back instead of settling, leaving plenty of air gaps, so one cup can be 10 g heavier or lighter than the next. Using scales, 150 g is about two metric cups.

In my kitchen
For me shredded lettuce is buying the full lettuce and then cutting it up myself rather than buying a packet. It is mainly used in salads and sides but also as extras for homemade burgers and tacos.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are shredded lettuce and shredded iceberg the same thing?
- Yes. Shredded iceberg is another name for shredded lettuce, so they are the same ingredient and measure identically. A cup of shredded lettuce weighs 75 grams under either name, and every conversion on this page holds whichever name your recipe uses. Recipes swap the two freely, so you can follow either without changing quantities or weighing any differently.
- Does packing the cup change how much shredded lettuce weighs?
- Yes. The 75 g figure is a middle value, and a metric cup can be anywhere from about 70 g to 80 g. Pressing down fits more lettuce into the cup, and so does cutting it very fine. A loose cup of coarse ribbons sits at the light end. If a recipe needs a set amount, weigh it on the scales instead.
- What is 0.25 cups of shredded lettuce in tablespoons?
- 0.25 cups of shredded lettuce is 4.17 tablespoons. This is the same for any ingredient, since cups and tablespoons are both volume units and do not depend on what you are measuring. One cup is about 16.67 tablespoons, so 0.5 cups is 8.33 tablespoons. Use the volume converter to switch between cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, and millilitres for any amount. Open the volume converter

The chart above this FAQ lists the cup amounts recipes call for, and the converter at the top handles anything between them.
