Once you get the hang of making mason jar salads, get creative and start mixing up your salad fixins!

Serves 2

  • 3 tablespoons peanut or almond butter

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil

  • ½ granny smith apple (diced)

  • 4 radishes (sliced)

  • 2 celery stalks (diced)

  • 1 carrot (diced)

  • ½ cup rinsed beans like chickpeas, cannellini, or edamame

  • 4 tablespoons of your favorite nuts or seeds (walnuts, slivered almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc.)

  • 4-6 cups of your favorite greens (spinach, kale, mixed greens, etc.)

Add first four ingredients to a small bowl & whisk until smooth. Add apple to dressing (so it's covered and won't brown) and divide between two mason jars.

Layer the radishes, celery, carrot, beans, nuts/seeds, and greens on top and seal.

When ready to eat shake up the jar, open and enjoy or pour it into a large bowl to mix more thoroughly.

Tip:  Wide-mouth jars work best for this easy way to bring veggies with you wherever you go!
