Ready-made Salad for Work

When I go to work, I want to easily eat healthy food. I’ve come up with a few tricks to make the task easier:

  1. I bring a big tub of pre-washed spring mix, spinach, or lettuce to work on Monday. I keep it in the fridge, alongside a nice bottle of healthy salad dressing.  The big Costco-sized bag lasts me half the week, or the whole week if I ration it.
  2. I also bring a pre-mixed bag of toppings. And no, they’re not sundae toppings, they’re raw nuts and dried fruit type stuff.  A good combo to get you started is: pepitas (shelled pumpkin seeds), sunflower seeds, and golden raisins.
  3. Oh, and I keep a fork and plate in the drawer. Anything else for the salad?  I don’t think so… not unless it’s an extra special day.

That’s it.  Here’s a photo for some eye candy (this was an extra special day with smoked salmon):
