This recipe is super easy, Paleo and Whole30 so it’s super healthy too. Moreover, it’s perfect for meal planning and I would go as far as saying that it’s one of the best make ahead salads for lunch.. And that’s not all…. In this post, I’m going to share with you some very useful tips and tricks that will surely help you make the best Greek mason jar salad for lunch.. I will tell you how to keep salad fresh all week, how to layer it in the jar, how long it will last and which ingredients you can change in this Greek mason jar salad recipe.. So without further ado, let jump right in.. How to make mason jar salad Best Tips & Tricks. 1. How to keep salad fresh all week. Depending on the ingredients used and if you build it right, the mason jar salad can last up to 5 days.. Keep in mind that mason jar salads with seafood will last just 3 days, but if you make it with chicken, turkey or beef it will certainly last more.. To keep the salad fresh all week, pay attention to how you arrange it. Start with the dressing at the base, then add olives or whole cherry tomatoes, or other veggies that won’t go mushy when getting in contact with the dressing.. If using proteins like meat or shrimp, add those on top of the dressing.. Next, add the rest of the veggies in layers and if you’re using salad leaves like lettuce or romaine, make sure to add those the very last. Salad leaves will quickly go bad if they’re not dried well or if they get in contact with moisture.. 2. How to store mason jar salad for a week. Mason jar salads are best refrigerated for up to 5 days. Only vegan salads will stay fresh for up to a week if refrigerated, and you’d have to make sure there’s no dairy in it (like cheese or dressings with dairy).. Also, it’s very important to build it correctly as I have explained above and will explain in more detail in the next section below.. I don’t recommend freezing the salad in a jar, as the jar can crack if it’s not freezer safe. Also, salads are meant to be served fresh, not thawed.. Veggies will usually get mushy when thawed. Think how cucumbers or greens like lettuce and spinach would turn if thawed. Their texture will just not be the same as it was when fresh.. 3. How to layer a salad in a jar. As I said above, you need to start with the dressing at the base, then add olives, cheese or any veggies that won’t go mushy when getting in contact with the dressing.. I find that cherry tomatoes will hold up perfectly, especially if they’re not cut.. Next, add the rest of the veggies in layers and save the last layer for greens like lettuce, spinach or arugula. As I said before, greens will go bad really quick when getting in contact with moisture, so try to keep them as far away as possible from the dressing.. And don’t forget to pat dry them really well with a paper towel after washing.. 4. Adapt this Greek mason jar salad recipe to your taste. You can make this Greek salad in a jar with your favorite veggies and here are some good ideas: potatoes, corn, green beans, steamed or sauteed broccoli, and cauliflower.. Furthermore, you can replace the greens with your favorites and you can also add cooked quinoa or pasta.. If you want it more consistent, add protein like meat or shrimp. It goes great with beef, shrimp, chicken and turkey or with deli meats.. And that was it for today, my dear foodies. By now you surely know how to make Greek salad in a jar so let’s get to the fun part, the actual recipe and cooking..

In a small bowl whisk the lemon and vinegar together. Slowly whisk in the oil then the garlic, parsley and oregano plus Divide the dressing among 3 quart-sized mason jars, spooning it into the bottom. Build the salads in layers, dividing evenly amongst the three jars. Begin by making the Greek salad dressing by placing all of the ingredients into a mason jar, food processor, or blender. Next, shake, process, or blend until the mixture is combined.
Then chill in the refrigerator until ready to use. To make the salad first place 2 Tablespoons of the salad dressing at the bottom of each Mason jar. Divide salad ingredients among the three mason jars in the order listed to optimize freshness. To each jar, add 1/2 cup whole cherry tomatoes, 2 tablespoons diced red onion, 1/3 cup cucumber slices, 1/3 cup chopped bell pepper, 3 ounces chicken, 1 1/2 cups chopped romaine, 1 ounce feta cheese, 3 black olives and 1 pepperoncini. Salads like this delicious Italian-Style Chopped Salad, with lettuce, chopped tomatoes, beans, cheese, and deli meat, would fit perfectly in a few pint-sized Mason jars for a few days — as long as the Italian dressing is kept separate in another container.

While any type of salad certainly works here, classic Greek salad — loaded with tomatoes, cucumbers, salty kalamata olives, and creamy feta — is particularly suited for getting packed in a jar. To each jar, add in about 2 tablespoons feta cheese, 1/4 cup chickpeas, 2 tablespoons roasted peppers, cucumbers and olives, a handful of fresh sliced tomatoes, some pickled red onions and fresh herbs. Top that with 2 to 3 tablespoons of cooked orzo (or more if you’d like!).
Cover the jar and stick it in the fridge. Add Greek dressing ingredients to a measuring cup and whisk well to combine. Divide dressing among large mason jars. Add salad ingredients into each jar: cherry tomatoes, diced onions, cucumbers, bell peppers, Kalamata olives and feta cheese.
Put the lid on and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Each mason jar salad is filled with cucumber, tomato, kalamata olives, feta, chicken and a light greek vinaigrette for the ultimate bite! Looking for more Greek chicken recipes? Try my Greek Chicken Lettuce Wraps with Tzatziki Sauce or my Greek.
Step 1 Divide Greek dressing evenly among the 5 jars, forming the first layer. Divide tomato halves evenly among the jars, forming the next layer. Layer ingredients in large mason jars in the following order: dressing, cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, feta, quinoa, chicken, lettuce.
To serve, pour the salad into a bowl or shake well and eat directly from the jar. Adjust amounts to taste and according to how many salads you are preparing.
List of related literature:
Make the Dressing: Pour the oil, vinegar, oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice into a mason jar.
For our Greek salad, we aimed a little higher: We wanted a salad with crisp ingredients and bold flavors, highlighted by briny kalamata olives and tangy feta, all blended together with a brighttasting dressing infused with fresh herbs.
Note: A full batch of Greek Vinaigrette is more than you will need for this recipe, but it will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator and is wonderful to have on hand for easy salads.
WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS: Most Greek salads consist of iceberg lettuce, chunks of green pepper, and a few pale wedges of tomato, all sparsely dotted with olives and cubes of feta.
Most versions of Greek salad consist of iceberg lettuce, chunks of green pepper, and a few pale wedges of tomato, sparsely dotted with cubes of feta and garnished with one forlorn olive of questionable heritage.
Great salads. However the potato and soybeans are not good for people who have inflammation issues. I would omit them and use something different that does not cause people to get sick. Please look at the nutrition information on what you put in your salads before saying they are healthy.
Do you have the Nutritional information for your meals anywhere listed? I’m very excited to begin making these mason jar meals. They look so Nutritiuos and Yummy to the Tummy Meals. I’m so excited about your beautiful new cookbook. God Bless You so very much for all your creative compassionate culinary delights. What a Beautiful New Daughter. Love your channel so very much, Tamson from Kentucky ��

This is NOT healthy if you’re using Honey in your dressing, Eggs, Ham, Cooked Bacon, Tuna. Animals are NOT food.

When you buy eggs know that thousands of male chicks are abused and ground alive. Eggs are a Chickens Period! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssOEJpBQErc
Goat Cheese? Thousands of baby male goats are slaughtered when they are about a week old. Female goats are taken from their mothers and kept in pens so that YOU can eat your Goat Cheese. Again…. ANIMALS are not our FOOD.
why would anyone do this? do you use a 2 foot long fork to get it out or do you dump it out and only the top layer of stuff falls out? i just make a smoothie so i can drink all that boring stuff right away before i get to the good stuff
The jars look beautiful. However I would like ideas to have a different salad everyday. I get bored eating thx same thing 5 days a week.

Question! Don’t the things in the bottom of the jar get all soggy? How can they last four days marinating in dressing? Just wondering…

Greek salad is NOT made with romaine. It is made with head lettuce. Don’t know why people have changed it. Doesn’t taste the same. Great video though!
