    This is what I did this week. I discovered that the those pre-packaged fruit cups fit in a wide mouth mason jar. So I used them to make lunches and snacks. Worked so well. I will keep doing this now that I have all the mason jars. just have to eat more fruit.

    This was my lunch, today. A tuna wrap with pasta salad (made with white balsamic vinegar).

    Most days for me is a handful of spring mix lettuce, matchstick carrots, and chopped sweet red pepper. Dressing is straight up balsamic vinegar. On the side a few thin slices of deli turkey, hard boiled egg, handful of grapes, and 5-6 small Rolled Gold Cheddar Pretzels for crunch.

    I Pack a salad in a Mason jar ... Dressing on the bottom with your veggies next and keep your greens as close to the top as possible . add in a paper towel square under the lid to soak up the moisture and keep the lettuce from getting soggy! For lunch remove the towel and shake it up ! I also bake chicken with garlic salt and pepper for flavor the night before its an easy meal prep

    I take a serving of dinner and pack it for lunch the next day. Sometimes I will put it in a wrap for a change of pace.
    This container is really handy.

    I will wrap up something crispy like crackers or chinese noodles, a little protein like nuts, cheese, or shredded chicken, and I have myself a great salad on the go.

    I have a set like that and my husband just starting using one too. They're great.

    I love my mason jars. I take soups in them and salad. I had to go online to get the 4 ounce ones you have your pic. Awesome idea!
