Grab & GO Caprese Salad IN-A-JAR

Simple way to BRIGHTEN your lunchtime!

Ingredients

  • 1-2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • Organic balsamic vinegar (optional, I did not use)
  • Organic grape/cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup fresh all natural mozzarella pearls.
  • 1/2 torn fresh basil leaves/baby spinach combo

Instructions:

It’s VERY important that the jars are completely dry.

{from the bottom-up}

  • 1-2 tsp extra virgin olive oil in the bottom of 1/2 pint or pint jars.
  • pinch of sea salt on top of the oil.
  • tsp organic balsamic vinegar (optional, I did not use)
  • a large handful of organic grape/cherry tomatoes.
  • 1/4 cup fresh all natural mozzarella pearls.
  • I filled to the top with 1/2 torn fresh basil leaves/baby spinach combo.

I wanted more of a salad for lunch time & love to get a little spinach in wherever I can.  You can simply use fresh basil here.

When you’re ready to eat, simply shake or stir, & dig in!

These will stay fresh for 4-5 days if:

  • The jar is completely dry
  • The vegetables, especially leafy greens are completely dry.  Fold a paper towel and place it in the very top of the jar before sealing. This really helps with the moisture inside the jars and prolongs freshness.
  • Keep refrigerated with a tightly sealed lid.

Fast Food!

Enjoy!
