I came up with this idea for a salad bar to combat one of my many excuses for not eating salad as much as I should. I was consistently buying all the fixings for great salad and the first day would make a killer salad, then the rest of the week I would watch the lettuce wilt and the cumbers shrivel. One of the excuses was that it was such a deal to get everything out... make the salad... and put everything away again. I tried mixing it all up on day one, and that didn't work out so good. I tried eating salad with less ingredients, and that bored me. SO...... my big idea
My OWN SALAD BAR!
I bought this cake carrier that fits perfectly in my fridge. And at the beginning of the week, when I buy all the yummies, I cut them up and put them in individual containers IN the 'salad bar'. Then come eating time, I pull out one big tray of all the toppings I could choose from. I do differnt combos each week. I am loving it!

I am so going to use your Awesome idea! I am always looking for something health...ier to eat that is not the same old Boring thing - Love it!
That is a good idea. I usually chop everything up and put them in seperate baggies. But, this is a lot more "green."
