I am quite in love with this new craze to hit America and they are perfect for us Slimming World followers! Mason jar salads!! The idea is to fill the bottom with a Syn free or Low Syn dressing.. then layer your salad. Leave in the fridge until you are ready to eat. Shake it all up and then devour. The list is endless on what you can put in your salads but here are a few ideas.
You can use any jar as long as it has a lid.. most of us have a jar lingering around for making overnight oats so that would do just fine.
Recipe Suggestion 1:
- Mix together 100ml Quark with black pepper and crushed garlic. Pour into the bottom of the jar.
- Top with Courgette spaghetti, cooked couscous, sliced radish, cooked chicken pieces and lettuce.
- Cover and shake before you eat.
Recipe Suggestion 2:
- Add 5 Tbsp Balsamic vinegar into the bottom of the jar.
- Top with sliced tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, cooked chicken pieces and lettuce.
- Cover and shake before you eat.
Recipe Suggestion 3:
- Mix together 4 Tbsp Passata with crushed garlic. Pour into the bottom of the jar.
- Top with kidney beans, cucumber, sweetcorn and grated cheese (healthy extra a) and lettuce.
- Cover and shake before you eat.
Recipe Suggestion 4:
- Add 3 Tbsp of Lighter than light mayonnaise (1.5 Syns) into the bottom of the jar.
- Top with sweetcorn, sliced tomatoes, grated carrot, diced beetroot, cooked chicken, red onion and lettuce.
- Cover and shake before you eat.
Recipe Suggestion 5:
- Place a low fat synned salad dressing into the bottom of the jar.
- Top with sweet corn, grated carrot, cooked rice, cooked bacon, chickpeas and sliced tomato.
- Cover and shake before you eat.
As you can see the list is endless as to what you can layer with. They are perfect to take to work as well as you can make them up the night before.
Enjoy 🙂
