    Don't put the dressing on while it's being stored

    I store my salad in Tupperware which isn't unusual, but I do fold a paper towel or two and place on top before putting on the lid. Next I turn it upside down and stick in the frig. The paper towel absorbs the extra moisture from just washed lettuce or tomatoes and is easy to remove when I am ready to have some.

    Thanks for starting this thread. I've seen those mason jar posts on pinterest but I never really clicked on the links thinking that they're just another pretty way of presenting/bringing your lunch with you. Here's a link that talks about how to pack a mason jar salad http://www.popsugar.com/food/How-Make-Mason-Jar-Salad-35032843?stream_view=1 . I'll have to give it a try tomorrow.

    I have containers that I got from amazon that are specifically for keeping veggies/fruits fresh. Can't remember what they are called, but they have green lids and you can put water in bottom based on what you are storing. It's phenomenal.
