Low FODMAP Mason Jar Salad Recipe

Have you ever wondered what is the best way to meal prep a salad? It can seem cumbersome at times. You have to get a container for the salad, maybe another container for different toppings, and a little container for your dressing. Whether you follow a low FODMAP diet or not, you’re going to appreciate this Low FODMAP Mason Jar Salad recipe!

Why prepare your salad in a mason jar? All of your salad components fit in one jar! You start at the bottom with your wet ingredients to prevent it from mixing prematurely and build off of that. That means your salad dressing goes in first, then other vegetables or legumes, topped with leafy greens. For this recipe, we suggest, after the salad dressing, placing the carrots, bell peppers, cucumber, chickpeas, rice, cabbage, greens, and sunflower seeds on top. The last thing you need to do before enjoying is giving it a shake and placing it in a large bowl!
