So in our adventures online for nutrition and how to keep the everyday cooking spicy\/varied. \u00a0We came across this blog post by Cassie from Back To Her Roots<\/a>. \u00a0It is her exploration of something that is trending on Pinterest at the moment. \u00a0But she isn’t the only one using the salad in a jar concept and the variety of salad options you can come up with is only limited by what you have in your fridge and time. \u00a0It’s such a good idea as this is something you can put together for 3 or 4 days of salad prep for the week. \u00a0 Using a plastic option may make it a fun idea to send the kids of school with it, please become a school lunch trend. x<\/p>\n

The goal is to put the dressing in first. \u00a0Then add either Tofu, some grains or root vegetables that will soak up the salad and then other layers of either cheese, nuts etc. and add the lettuce\/spinach last. \u00a0That way they stay crispy and fresh.<\/p>\n

Some cafes are selling them prepped, but these are so easy to do and the jars are easily bought from Wheel and Barrow. \u00a0What a beautiful way to keep you inspired to eat healthy and with the least amount of effort. \u00a0And you can walk into work with you salad creations and feel like you are adding some colour to the work fridge.<\/p>\n
