👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1--- Salad Meal Prep ---
2. 2Prep the vegetables and place in serving size containers. (I use these containers and these containers to store prepped salads.) Add a paper towel to each box to help the produce last longer. Place in the refrigerator until ready to eat.
3. 3--- When Ready to Eat ---
4. 4Warm the protein of your choice and chop bite-size, if needed. Add the protein to the pre-made salad greens and vegetables.
5. 5Add the toppings of your choice. Squeeze lime generously over the salad and sprinkle with salt and pepper, or drizzle with your favorite salad dressing.
