Great ideas all. . . And I am not offended, for crying out loud. Thanks for posting.

I am trying to change my diet but avoid salad because it was too much work to make everyday. I’d never seen a way to make it ahead of time like this! I can’t wait to try it.

I think there is some kind of magic in the glass… I think you could try another glass container that has a lid! If you do, I’d love to know how it goes! I have lots of luck finding mason jars at the thrift store for like a $.50 each just FYI and then you don’t have to buy a whole dozen. https://amzn.to/1Vmp02P these are my favorite lids too (be mindful when purchasing if you have wide or regular mouth lids!) Good luck!

OK – I have what may be a dumb question. Is it possible to use another container besides a mason jar? Just wondering because I don’t currently have any of them – and not a lot of storage space. Thanks!

In Hawaii where, where I live, there are lots of Asians who live and work here. The wonderful salad entitled Asian Invasion immediately struck me as offensive. Please think of another name for this fine salad. Please. I love your website. I love my Asian friends, doctor, dentist, etc. and I am embarrassed for them.

In reply to kate. No need to do anything special... the jar is magic!

No need to “Vacuum” or anything? The lettuce doesn’t turn brown or mushy edged? If not, I’m impressed!!!!!!!!!!! We eat a huge salad (I do it 90% organic, b/c that’s where I will spend the $$ – used to be in the meat dept., now it’s in the Produce Dept!!) every night, and I really hate making them each night. I make two nights’ worth, leaving out the cut cucs and cherry tomatoes, till the second night, but it is still tedious work.

In reply to Molly. Avocados also keep well in the mason jars because of the lid. It seals the air out, the avocado is still delicious after several days. I make these all the time!

I use glass salad dressing jars or glass fruit jars. The canning lids and rings fit these jars perfectly. I recycle this way.
