SALAD IN A JAR?

i saw this idea posted on Facebook a long time ago and totally forgot about it...this morning my neice, Marla, posted it to her Facebook page...so, i thought i would share this on my blog with my followers and friends...also, so i don't forget to do it...


from Mayra Cavazos Facebook page.

GREAT IDEA...
Utterly brilliant. Not only does SALAD IN A JAR save space in your fridge, it also reduces food waste.

THE ARRANGEMENT
From BOTTOM to TOP:

Dressing
Shredded carrots
Cherry tomatoes
Sunflower seeds
Hard boiled eggs
Baby spinach

DIRECTIONS

1) Arrange ingredients in a large mason jar
2) Store in fridge for up to a week
3) When ready to eat: shake jar, place on a plate, and eat!

You can make any arrangement you want… you can add red onion, cucumbers, radishes or peppers. Always remember to put the dressing at the bottom and the lettuce at the top—a MUST.

****NOTE**** If your making a few salads at a time for the week, you MUST remember to vacuum seal the Mason Jars. (Mason jars can be bought at Wal-mart, and various grocery stores) They must be vacuum sealed to remain fresh and crisp :) Here are two different ways to vacuum seal a mason jar :D

Happiness...

"Tell everyone you know: "My happiness depends on me, so you're off the hook." And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they're doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give anyone else responsibility for th e way you feel—and then, you'll love them all. Because the only reason you don't love them, is because you're using them as your excuse to not feel good."
