Save Money and Make an Easy Salad Bar at Home
By Monica Resinger
One thing I like to do for dinner, that my family loves, is make a salad bar. It’s easy, inexpensive, fun, healthy and is always different; a plus in my book!
The only work involved is making the salad ingredients salad-friendly (cutting them to bite size) and if you want meat and aren’t using leftovers, you’ll need to cook the meat. Thinly slice or chunk up meats, shred cheeses and carrots, thinly slice or chunk up vegetables… the main thing is to get them bite sized and how you like them. A lot of items are already prepared such as nuts, thawed peas, shredded cheeses, croutons (unless you make your own!), and dried fruits.
You can use whatever you have on hand that sounds good to go in a salad, including leftovers (great way to save money). Almost anything goes for salads nowadays, so be creative. After making the ingredients bite-sized, simply put them in lined-up dishes across your countertop or tabletop and include bottles of salad dressing, homemade dressing and/or oil and vinegar at the end.
Here are some of the ingredients you could use in a salad bar: Read more
