I’ve always wanted to like salads, but I find as a meal I’ll load them up with croutons and dressing and then they are not as healthy as intended.
But this photo and blog post from Salad in a Jar might have me reconsidering. Like me she makes her salads ahead of time using mason jars and a vacuum (I don’t have one) to create salads in a jar – just as the post and website are called!

Visit her blog and read all about her method for preparing a salad in a jar as well as this link to her toppings and dressing.
