"But won't the lettuce melt?"
"Not if you make a paper towel salad," I replied.
She did and she sent me this picture.
Just make the salads, putting the dressing in a separate container. Then, in each salad container, put a dry paper towel.
(You can even change it out on Wednesday night for Thursday and Friday. But it will usually be fine for the whole week.)
The paper towels absorb the moisture and keep the lettuce crisp.
BONUS TIP: Do the same for salads to serve with supper all week (in one big plastic container) or for the kids' lunches.
Eat happier and healthier!

I am going to try this in the morning with my bagged fresh spinach. Thanks; pinned.
Thank you! I love this tip and I'm going to try it
Great tip, thank you!
This is a great tip! We eat salad a lot and I only ever get enough for a couple of days. This would allow me to get a week's worth of salad when I do my weekly grocery shopping. :)
Just yesterday i was wondering how I could prep salads for the whole week! Thank you for the tip. Can't wait to try it!!
Great tip - I've read this before but needed to be reminded! I'm going to try this soon!
This is great, thank you! I am not a mom, but I have long workdays leaving the house at 6:30 every morning. Definitely going to try this tomorrow.
