Salad on the GO

 My wife turned me on to a neat idea for preparing salads for when you are going to be on the go. All you will need is a mason jar, the kind used in canning vegetables. First put your salad dressing in the bottom of the jar. Next put your meat such as grilled chicken.Then put a layer of your vegetables (onions, peppers, cucumbers, mushrooms..etc). Lastly put all of your greens on top of all of this and secure the lid.

If you pack your salads this way it will:

1. keep you from having to have a separate container for your dressing.

2. Since the lettuce is on top of all of the other stuff in your salad
you will not have to worry about the "greenery" getting all mushy
and wilted.


When you are ready for your salad just give the jar a good shaking then pour it all on a styro plate and start eating.

Thanks Dana...I knew all that web surfing at night would pay off eventually!
