One great way to make salads more portable, desk-friendly, and, well, cuter, is via our Mason jar method. Here’s more info:
Cute, right? So the basic formula involves adding dressing to the bottom of the jar, piling on tasty toppings, and finishing off with salad greens (to prevent sad mushiness).

Greek Goddess Dressing: So now my lunch is not only cute (hello, jar), but it’s also worthy of the title of goddess. I’ll take it! And this creamy, dreamy dressing has helped it earn the title.
