Servings: 1 serving
Equipment
- 1 Mason Jar
Ingredients
- 4 SugarBee® apples diced
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 1/2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 cup diced chicken
- 1/2 cup walnuts chopped
- 1/2 cup dried cherries
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. This creamy dressing will bring everything together while keeping the salad light and healthy.
- Assemble the Mason Jar Salad: Layer the ingredients in your mason jars in the following order to keep them fresh:
- Dressing at the bottom of the jar (this prevents the salad from getting soggy).
- Add diced chicken on top of the dressing.
- Layer in the diced SugarBee® apples, followed by chopped walnuts and dried cherries.
- Seal and Store: Once your jars are assembled, seal them tightly with the lid. Store the mason jars in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. The dressing will stay at the bottom, so when you're ready to eat, simply shake the jar to evenly coat the salad.
- Serve: Pour the contents onto a plate or eat directly from the jar for a quick, healthy meal on the go!
