Meal prep?

[Anonymous]

Every Sunday I prep my lunches for the week, with hearty salads and fruit and sometimes another side. The salads have lots of different veggies and nuts or seeds and a protein. They look beautiful and delicious as I pop them into the fridge.

By noon on Monday, however, whatever I made the day before is the last thing I want to eat! I usually still want a salad, but I want one made by someone else, like the work cafeteria or Sweetgreen. Thoughts on/fixes for what is probably a psychological problem I have?

Why do you want a different salad? How different?

Are you compiling the salad before refrigerating it? I would keep most of the toppings separate and mix them together when you're ready to eat.

Maybe this is my problem - I’ve been trying to do mason jar salads and they just taste so…meh the next day.

Yuck. Get a set of Tupperware that lets you separate all your ingredients, including dressing, and put the salad together when you're ready to eat it.

Search "salad lunch container" on Amazon -- lots of options under $10.
