Salad bar at home
The new virtual thing going around is people making salad bars in their refrigerator. Well I rent and have an older refrigerator, and i don’t have the room but think its a great idea. Then the snackle box come out and went viral and people started to do salads bars like this as well. This is how i came about doing this. I just use what we like. My teens likes chef salads so i try to stay with them ingredients.
There’s also a women known as the salad bar mom who has a restaurant style salad bar in her house for her family of 11 , what is a great idea . so for me this style set up with my snackle boxes will have to do for
My family of 3 for now until i can afford a commercial prep station or my family gets bigger lol 😂
My teens love this they can pick whatever just like at a restaurant, they say they feel fancy and its just like a restaurant just a mini salad bar.
Since 2020 most of the salad bars and buffets are gone so this is a nice option. I noticed after I started doing this i dont miss them over price salad bars/ buffets and my family is eating more salads/ veggies if i have it like this easy and assessable.
So far i have done this 3 times now and about on the 3rd day i have to restock it just depends on how many getting out of it and how often, i just do this for lunch time with 2 teens and one adult getting a salad so it does last.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash lettuce and all vegetables/ fruits,cut, dice, everything,make hard boiled eggs. Then fill each container compartment make sure everything is dry before placing in the container. Fill it with your favorite salad toppings.
- 2
I recommend two containers one for the lettuce and one for all of the toppings. They can stack on top of each other in the refrigerator. Lazy way would be use a bag of lettuce kit or salad kit.
- 3
I have tons of salad options i might have missed some. Just use what you have and what you like.
- 4
Depending on my food budget, i like to get spring mix or different kinds of lettuce and mix up so its not the same all of the time, can even find some salad kits / spring mix on clearance.
- 5
Its also good to mix up the topping so its not the same each week and mix it up some. We also like to but fruit in ours like grapes and strawberries. And again can find vegetables and fruits on clearance just have to be mindful when it close to expiration dates.

Mini salad bar using leftover lettuce from taco night Mini salad bar using leftover lettuce from taco night
For some reason I always have leftover lettuce whether it’s tacos or burgers , and i don’t like to waste anything so this is what i did with it. I simply just used whatever lunchmeat i had on hand and whatever fruits i had, was luckily enough to have eggs at the time so i added hard boiled eggs. Great fridge clean out idea. This got me 3-4 salads that we used for lunches for the week, my kids loved the idea of picking out their own topping like at a buffet.This now has become my favorite way to store and make salads.
