There are so many ways to make a salad in a Jar, and I don't know about you, but I haven't met one yet that I didn't like - or love for that matter!
The size of your jar or container will determine the amount of each ingredient you use. So eyeball it to your likes and have some culinary fun!
Here are a couple of our favorites:
1. Spinach, Quinoa & Black Bean Salad:
Drop-in a handful of spinach leaves and layer in the following:
prepared quinoa
diced avocado
diced mango
prepared black beans
sliced red onion rings
This salad is so fresh and delicious on its own, but if you love dressing as much as we do, you'll want to try this one with a drizzle of our Spicy 1000 Island Dressing.
2. Spinach, Pear & Pomegranate Salad:
Drop-in a couple of slices of pear and layer in the following:
baby spinach leaves
pomegranate seeds
sliced pear
more spinach leaves
walnuts
vegan blue cheese or feta crumbles
top with a few additional pomegranate seeds
This salad is also amazingly fresh and delicious on its own. Still, we think it's even more delicious with a drizzle of our Sweet Italian Salad Dressing.
These salads are perfect make-ahead salads for picnics, work-day lunches, or a relaxing day at home when you don't want to fuss over much of anything.
If you want to include the dressing inside the jar, add it first, so it's on the bottom, and keep the spinach or other greens toward the top so they don't wilt.
Enjoy!
