Quick Mason Jar Salads Recipes for the Health Conscious

I love mason jar salads! It’s a shame that it took me a long time to try this out and see what all this fuss was about!

I had mason jars lying around in the kitchen for years but never really figured how to re-use them other than for desserts. And so, when I started making mason jar salads recipes, I am in love!

First, because they’re pretty and makes your salad looks even more appealing. Second, they don’t leach flavor. Unlike plastic that retains flavor and aroma of food, mason jars don’t leach. Wash and dry mason jars in between uses, and your salads should come out tasty and fresh.

Third, when layered right, your salad ingredients should remain crisp and fresh for days, which means you can prep salads for the week and save time.This also ensures you are going to eat healthy!

And finally, isn’t it fun to eat gorgeous, healthy food out of a jar?

To make mason jar salads, all you have to do is:

  1. Prep the ingredients.
  2. Make the dressing.
  3. Layer the salad ingredients in a jar. Ideally, you want your dressing to be in the bottom to keep the other ingredients crisp and not soggy.
  4. Store in the fridge.

Pro Tip

Choose your containers wisely. You want to use the right mason jar size to fit all the ingredients you want to include in your salad, and open-mouthed containers so it is easier to pack the ingredients into the jar and pick them out of the jar.
