Dressing

- 1 tsp mustard, Dijon
- 1/2 tsp maple syrup, real

Instructions
- Place the crunchy vegetables, beans, or grains towards the bottom of the mason jar. These are items that won’t become soggy if you decide to add your dressing early.
- Top with fruit, herbs, or softer vegetables.
- Make the dressing by whisking together all salad ingredients (or shake vigorously in a tightly sealed jar) until creamy and emulsified.
- Store your dressing separate for long-term salad storage, or drizzle over salad right away for same-day entrée. Without dressing, salad will keep for 3 days.
