jarring...in a good way...

it’s no secret that i am totally obsessed with the thought of planning ahead meals. & if they can be individualized into mason jars, well then sign me up. (i’m such a dork…it’s cool.)

today, i finally got around to doing a new jar that i have been wanting to do for weeks now. salads! yes, i am very excited as i love a killer salad, but don’t always have the time to prep one. & restaurants…well, sometimes their lettuce looks a bit questionable. & this is not my genius idea at all. totally saw it somewhere…pinterest, maybe?! (probably)

but i wanted to share with those who may not have seen it or had never thought of it as an option:

mason jar salads: (build from the bottom up)
dressing of choice
(veggies that handle being cozy with dressing)
onions
bell peppers
carrots
cucumbers
tomatoes (i was out of those today unfortunately)
lettuce
toppings: (optional) fruit, nuts, granola, cheese, fresh herbs/flowers, etc.



i just did 3 to start & mine were pretty basic today. i had lettuce left over, so into a 4^th jar it went (so i won’t forget that it’s in the crisper browning away)

& the good news is that they will keep in the refrigerator for several days. so be creative! i can’t wait to try different variations, all fruit salad, etc. salads to go…yum!
