Follow These Meal-Prep Tips to Make a Week of Mason-Jar Salads That Stay Fresh Through Day 7

What I love about not putting greens in my mason jars is that depending on my mood that day, I can choose whatever greens I want. Some days I want fresh spinach, spring mix, or chopped romaine, and some days when I'm chilly, I like to sauté kale. Variety keeps my salads exciting!

I get out a serving-size bowl (it's huge!), add my greens, pour in the contents of the mason jar, and then add other toppings like fresh fruit, beans, cooked rice or quinoa, sautéed mushrooms, roasted potatoes, fresh tomatoes, seeds, and lately I've been into a generous drizzle of maple balsamic vinegar.
