Healthy Salads on the Go
The key to a well built mason jar salad is proper layering:
Layer 1: The Dressing
Layer 2: Crunchy Vegetables (cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, celery, onions, peppers, asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, etc)
Layer 3: Softer Vegetables and Beans (mushrooms, peas, lentils, black beans, zucchini, squash, etc)
Layer 4: Proteins and Cheeses (eggs, chicken, etc)
Layer 5: Dense Ingredients (quinoa, etc)
Layer 6: Greens and Nuts (spinach, arugula, almonds, chia seeds, etc)
The secret to layering is to keep the wet foods or foods that are ok wet closer to the bottom and the foods that would be unpalatable wet on top. As you can see, the possibilities are endless!
