Citrus Mason Jar Salad

Serves: 1

Cook Time: 10 Minutes 

INGREDIENTS:

Dressing:

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tsp olive oil

1 tbsp maple syrup

1 tsp lemon

Salt and pepper to taste

Salad:

1/4 cup canned chickpeas

2 clementines

1 blood orange (or raspberry orange)

1/2 grapefruit

1 1/2 cups spinach

1/2 avocado (dash of lemon juice so it deosn’t turn brown)

1 tbsp chopped almonds

1 tbsp hemp seeds

Note: It doesn’t necessarily have to be these three citruses. Meyers lemons, navel oranges, cara cara oranges are a few others i’ve used that all work just as delicious.

HOW TO:

1. In a small bowl all dressing ingredients. Whisk together.

2. Drain and rinse canned chickpeas. Add chickpeas to dressing. Add to mason jar.

3. Peal citrus. Layer the citruses on top of the chickpeas.

4. Wash spinach and layer on top of citrus.

5. Dice half an avocado. Toss it in a dash of lemon juice (this will preserve the greenness of the avocado).

6. Add toppings. Nuts, seeds etc

7. Shake up only when you’re ready to enjoy.

8. Good for 3 days in fridge
