“Summer Vibes” Mason Jar Salad

4 oz Little Leaf Farms Baby Crispy Green Leaf Lettuce

8 oz Cabot Vermont Sharp Cheddar Cheese, cut into ¼" cubes

1.50 cups corn, cut from 2 cobs** You can substitute frozen corn, simply thaw before use

1 cup grape tomatoes, halved

15 oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained

2 cups quinoa, cooked and cooled (from about ⅓ cup dry)

½ cup of your favorite vinaigrette

This Summer Vibes Mason Jar Salad is a fresh, colorful, and convenient meal prep option packed with greens, grains, and protein. Start with all of the ingredients prepped, set up the four mason jars on your kitchen counter.

Fill the bottom of each jar with 2 tbsp of your favorite vinaigrette. This keeps the dressing separate from the lettuce, preventing it from getting soggy.

Add ingredients to each jar in the following order: chickpeas, quinoa, tomatoes, corn, cheese.

Top each jar with a generous handful of Little Leaf Farms Baby Crispy Green Leaf lettuce. Press the lettuce down lightly to make sure everything fits, then tightly seal each jar with a lid.

Store the salad upright in the refrigerator for up to three days. When you're ready to eat, give the jar a good shake to mix the ingredients and enjoy directly from the jar or pour into a bowl.
