After a long day at the office, who wants to chop vegetables AND decide what to do with them?
I was chatting with a client about how she finds herself pushing through the workday and getting home around 8 pm reaching for boxed mac and cheese simply because her energy battery is running at 2%. Can you relate? I can! She’s looking for new simple ideas to include more vegetables into her dinners because at 8 pm, the last task she wants to do is chop broccoli.
For those of you looking to spice up your vegetable regimen, here’s a simple trick. Ready for it? Salad kits! Salad kits are becoming more popular and come in a variety of options from your basic caesar to Southwest chopped. All of the salad ingredients, including a dressing that pairs well, are included in the package and your only task is to combine the ingredients and add your desired amount of dressing. Super easy, right?! If you use salad kits for the work week, I recommend keeping the salad dressing separate and dress the salad just before eating to keep all the ingredients fresh and crisp.
What are your go-to ways to eat enough vegetables when you don’t have anything prepped?
