Santa Fe Salad in a Jar

  1. Salad dressing: Pour 3 Tablespoons 

    Chili Lime Vinaigrette salad dressing in the bottom of the jar. See recipe below.
  2. Hard vegetables: Next, add 1 cucumber, peeled and chopped.

  3. Beans, grains, and pasta: Next, add 

    1/2 cup drained black beans and 1/2 cup drained corn.
  4. Softer vegetables and fruits (optional): Next, add 2 chopped tomatoes and 1/2 cup black olives.

  5. Salad greens: Last but not least, fill the rest of the jar with chopped Romaine lettuce. Use your hands to tear them into bite-sized pieces. It's fine to pack them into the jar fairly compactly.
