Mason Jar Salads
Healthy & Easy Lunch Ideas
I love mason jars! We use them to drink water, iced-coffee & smoothies. They are great for storing leftovers in the fridge & one of my other favorite uses for Mason Jars is meal prep! I love making Mason Jar Salad meals because visually, they are just so beautiful! You may wonder, how do you eat a salad from a mason jar? First, if you leave a little room in the mason jar (which I usually forget to do ha), you can then “shake it” and all the salad ingredients will mix together. Another option is to use your mason jar as a way to transport or store your prepped salad and then pour the ingredients out in a bowl when it’s time to enjoy, this is what I typically do.
Today I am sharing 3 Mason Jar Salad meals. I’d love to know which one you try first! Leave me a comment below & of course if you have any questions too! Thanks for stopping by the HGG Blog today! xx Megan Your Registered Dietitian
