Made using ingredients from the Garden Box Delivered November 12, 2015
Every Sunday, you can find me in the kitchen with my mason jars.
Each one a little different. Each one with new surprises. Each one making noon a little less stressful and a little more healthy around these parts. Here’s how you can make your own using The Farm Table Box ingredients.
LAYER ONE: Wet Veggies
Here I used sliced tomatoes, but you can use anything with a little juice in them (squash, fruit, cucumbers, etc.)
LAYER TWO: Soft vegetables
Here I used avocado, but think peas, etc.
LAYER THREE: Hard vegetables (carrots, peppers, cooked beets, potatoes, etc.) I used carrots and conveniently forgot to take a picture.
LAYER FOUR: Protein
Here I used a hard-boiled egg. You can use chickpeas, grilled chicken, canned tuna, cheese, tempeh, quinoa. Possibilities are endless.
LAYER FIVE: Greens
Top this jar off with some leafy greens. Stuff it tight so you can fit a lot in!
Just store in the fridge until ready to munch.
OPTIONAL LAYERS: NUTS OR A CRUNCH
Once you dump the salad into a bowl, feel free to add anything that won’t sit well in the fridge, such as sliced almonds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, etc.
Here is a great list of various recipes, but get creative with whatever is in your box this week!
