Ingredients

1 medium to large mason jar with a screw-on lid
1/4 cup vinaigrette of your choice
1/4 cup sliced cherry tomatoes
1/4 cup diced yellow bell pepper
1/4 sliced carrots
1/4 sliced cucumbers (suggested: Persian)
1/4 cup blueberries
1/4 cup shredded red cabbage
1/2 cup baby spinach
1/4 cup pumpkin seeds or salted sunflower seeds
Feta cheese for garnish (optional)

Preparation

Place your vinaigrette in the bottom of the mason jar.
Next, place your tomatoes.
By filling the bottom with the dressing and then a veggie like tomatoes (which can mush quicker) it keeps the whole salad fresher longer.
Pile in the rest of the veggies in this order, yellow bell pepper, carrots, blueberries, red cabbage, and finally pack the spinach.
Give it a gentle push to keep all the veggies packed in (another reason this salad won’t spoils it is packed tightly) then sprinkle the pumpkin seeds and cheese, if you’re using them.
Place in the refrigerator and store for up to a week.
