5 days of Mason Jar Salads

One of my favorite healthy lunches is a mason jar salad, these recipes are super cute, delicious, and healthy as well.  remember you can alter these anyway you like to fit your personal taste.  These are 5 of my favorite salads.  For alterations you can change dressings, add or get rid of vegetables, and change the cheeses to fit you tastes and make these amazing salads your own. For each of these recipes I will share how to layer them, and what I used when making them, as well as a few options you can have for alterations.

Options: Pepperocini's, red onions, beets, cucumbers, zucchini,cranberries, Parmesan cheese, Mexican cheese, cucumbers, or eggs.
