Mason jar salads stay fresh and crisp for days when you layer them correctly. Put the dressing on the bottom and the greens on top.
Layer sturdy vegetables, beans, grains, and proteins in the middle so the greens never touch the dressing. When you are ready to eat, shake the jar or pour it into a bowl.
Pin Tip
Use wide mouth jars so salads are easier to fill and empty.

Make It Your Own
Swap in seasonal vegetables, your favorite proteins, or spices you love. Simple recipes are easy to adapt for picky eaters, special diets, and whatever is already in your refrigerator.
