I love to make any recipe that makes my life easier. Making salad in a jar is a great (and truly simple) way to get prepared for the week ahead with almost no extra work. My family and I like to avoid takeout and pack our own lunches as often as possible. With this simple Greek salad in a jar recipe you’ll be able to have both!
Since I suffer from frequent heartburn, sometimes the onions and dressing in these Greek salads can trigger some pain. Keep reading to check out how I’m keeping my heartburn at bay while also enjoying this delicious lunch on the go recipe.
I’m so glad to have Omeprazole Orally Disintegrating Tablets on hand. It’s perfect for treating my frequent heartburn and they keep me from having to avoid foods that I love!
If you also suffer from frequent heartburn, occurring two or more days a week, consider making the switch to Omeprazole Orally Disintegrating Tablets.
With no pills to swallow, Omeprazole ODT with MELTech™ allows the small strawberry flavored tablet to disintegrate right on your tongue (no water needed!) This is especially great for people on the go like me! When I don’t know exactly what I’ll be eating, or I know I’ll be eating something that could trigger my heartburn, I have to be prepared! The dissolvable tablets are great for just that!
*Use as directed for 14 days to treat frequent heartburn (occurring 2 or more days a week). May take 1-4 days for full effect. Not intended for immediate relief.
Store brand Omeprazole has been available for frequent heartburn sufferers to purchase at a lower cost than national brands for over a decade. You can find Omeprazole ODT online and in-store with the store locator at Dissolveyourheartburn.com Packaging varies by retailer.
Here’s what I use to make Greek salad in a jar:
First we will make the dressing. This is where I usually see issues with my heartburn, instead of avoiding the ingredients that I know will taste great and make for an excellent Greek salad in a jar, I come prepared with my Omeprazole tablets!
You will need olive olive, red wine vinegar, dijon mustard, garlic, oregano, basil, and some salt! That’s it! This is also a great dressing to use on all kinds of chicken recipes!
For the salads we will use romaine mix, cooked shredded chicken, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, some of our homemade dressing, red onions, black olives, and crumbled feta cheese.
This is a great hearty lunch recipe that will make lunch or even dinner delicious. It’s a great meal to include in your healthy lifestyle plans. The whole family will love these greek salads in a jar and you’ll love that they’re eating something fresh and homemade!
How to make a Greek salad in a jar:
- Combine all the ingredients for the dressing into a jar with a lid. Shake well. Set aside.
- Place all your ingredients in the mason jar in this order: dressing, cucumber, chicken, tomatoes, onion, pepper, olives, romaine mix, and feta.
- Place the lid on the top and store for up to 3 days.
Tips for making the best salad in a jar:
- Do not place the romaine mix near the dressing or it will wilt and be gross in no time. The tomatoes, chicken, and cucumbers are stored near the dressing to soak up the flavor.
- Adjust the ingredients based on your likes and dislikes. For example, I love cucumbers, so I tend to add more of those.
- The recipe for dressing should be enough for 4 salads, not just one. Store, sealed, in the fridge, for up to 2 weeks.
